Ms. Dierks – Guidance Counselor, Team 7C/8C

 

 My role as a school counselor is to contribute to the students’ academic success.  I deliver a guidance curriculum to all students through a variety of activities related to the academic, personal/social, and career areas of their lives. 

                                                                                                                       

School counselors are an integral part of the school team.  They work with families and collaborate with community agencies and businesses to provide opportunities for students.  We consult with teachers and families to encourage students to achieve in all aspects of education.

                                                                                                                       

Counselors assist individual students who have unique needs, including those who may be experiencing barriers to academic success.  Our comprehensive guidance program is both proactive and responsive to the individual needs of all students.

                                                                                                                      

A few of the topics we cover with the students are:

 

   Increase self awareness

   Learn ways to respect others

   Learn ways to resolve conflict

   Develop problem solving strategies

   Practice interpersonal skills

   Practice positive decision-making skills

   Develop and use good study skills

   Investigate a variety of career plans

   Develop realistic career goals

   Keep post secondary options open
