We have two school counselors, Emily McInnis and Sophie Knickerbocker, available for academic, personal, and social counseling either individually or in groups throughout the school year.
Counseling lessons are presented to students quarterly and are coordinated to enhance growth and healthy emotional development. Examples of topics covered include self-esteem, coping skills, empathy/bullying, conflict resolution, career awareness, and communication.
Parents have access to the counselors and are encouraged to consult throughout the year. Emily McInnis also coordinates speech therapy services through Orleans Parish School Board.
The counseling department assists 7th grade students and their families with the high school admission process.
