WASHINGTON ELEMENTARY GUIDANCE OFFICE
Confidentiality
School counseling services are confidential. The CDC found that students are more likely to seek help if counseling and mental health services were kept confidential. Protecting your child's right to privacy is very important to the school counseling program at WE. If serious issues arise during counseling with your child, Mrs. Elliott will notify you. Such issues include: Your child is being hurt, your child wants to hurt someone else, or your child wants to hurt themselves.
Classroom Guidance
Classroom guidance again looks a bit different for the second semester of the 2020/2021 school year. We are continuing to do a 5 week rotation where I will see each K-1st grade classroom 4 times for 20 min. Grades 2-4 will see me twice for 50 minutes. If students have library/guidance on a regular Wednesday, Mrs. Casey and I will be doing a co-teaching lesson surrounding team work through games and projects.

Individual Counseling
If your child is experiencing difficulty managing life changes, emotions, or behavior, they are welcome to meet with Mrs. Elliott for individual counseling. Students may choose on their own to schedule an appointment with Mrs. Elliott or they may be referred by a parent/guardian or staff member.
