My Students
I am an Elementary School Counselor. I serve students grades K-5 at two schools, Park View Elementary and Orchard Hills Elementary. I have a large caseload of students I provide counseling for. In addition, I teach lessons in every grade once a month 6-7 times a year. I run group counseling and help with the Student Council. So many students have struggled with anxiety each year.
My Project
Students have shown up this school year with a variety of needs since the Covid -19 pandemic has started. Many students are depressed, shut down, and have high levels of anxiety, more than ever!
By having more tools in my office to help students, I will be able to teach them coping skills and reset those stuck feelings so they can get back to class and not miss out on learning.
Having a variety of options such as books, tools such as musical instruments, fidget tools and games to run my group counseling program will help students learn how to cope with their big feelings.
Thank you for your consideration. I'm excited about the possibility of the tools that will help me help my students!
