How is elementary school counseling different?
At the elementary level, counselors may spend more time observing younger students during classroom and play activities. At all levels, School Counselors may confer with teachers and parents to evaluate the student’s strengths, problems, or special needs. At the elementary level, counselors do less vocational and academc counseling, and focus more on student’s emotional needs. Middle level counseling places an emphasis on developing social skills and student interests.
