We aim to collect information regarding where teens seek outside-of-school activities (e.g. community service, paid jobs, internships, study abroad opportunities, and more) and what they look for when doing so.

What do school counselors do?

by Hlynn

Aug 10, 2010

I'm having a conversation with some people about what school counselors do, particularly at the high school level. Some think advising about classes to take and what to do after high school, and preparation for that is the main part of the job. Is it?

I've talked with counselors who say helping students figure out family and personal issu...See More

I'm at the elementary level and I spend a lot of time doing classroom guidance, staff support stuff (504s, EC referrals, etc), individual counse...See More

by skitless

Aug 11, 2010

I would appreciate suggestions for teacher "skit" presentations that demonstrate the character trait of "resposibility" to students in grades 3, 4 and 5 (beginning of year.) My research has not been productive as yet... Thank you!

Forgetting homework - remembering to do homework.

Getting to school late - getting to school on time.

Loosing books - taking care of school resources

And the list could ...See More

Leah Make a bulletin board with pictures of the staff including teachers, custodian, principal, cafeteria workers, librarian, etc. That way the children and parents can learn the names with the faces of the school staff.

It could be titled: WELCOME! or WELCOME TO (name of school) Where We Care About Each Other.
