Lessons for all K - 5 students
Ms. Richeson will teach classroom lessons based on various topics depending upon grade level and student needs. Lessons may include topics such as: personal space, friendship skills, self-esteem, career exploration, peer pressure/bullying, Zones of Regulation etc. These lessons occur during scheduled times throughout the course of the school year!
Small Support Groups
This year, your student may sign-up to participate in up to 3 support groups. Topics of the groups this year include: Building Friendship Skills, Managing Emotions/Feelings, and Practicing Mindfulness. These small groups are incorporated into your student’s daily schedule and will last approximately 30 minutes, once a week, for up to 6 sessions.
If you would like your child to participate in any of the support groups offered, please fill out this Support Group Permission Form which was sent home on September 23rd.
Individual Counseling
If an issue arises that may need some individual attention, you may use this form to sign your child up to receive individual, short-term (up to 6) counseling sessions with the school counselor. If the need is intense and long-lasting, the counselor will assist with connecting you to an appropriate community counselor based on the unique needs of your student/s and family.
