Professional
school counselors are trained in both education and counseling, allowing them
to function as a facilitator between parents, teachers and students in matters
concerning the student's goals, abilities and any areas needing improvement.
School counselors are professional educators with a mental health perspective
who understand and respond to the challenges presented by today's diverse student
population. |
