Why do Elementary
Schools need Counselors? Elementary
school years set the tone
for developing the
knowledge, attitudes
and skills necessary for
children to become
healthy, competent and
confident learners.
Through a comprehensive school counseling
program, school counselors work as a team
with the school staff,
parent and the community to create a caring
