Tiered Support
Through the Multi-Tiered System of Supports, we provide more targeted and intensive help for students who need it -- both academically and social/emotionally.
Universal
We strive to support all students with universal programming.
Targeted
When a student is struggling, our teachers, school counselors and psychologists give more targeted help.
Intensive
If targeted support does not work or a student is in crisis our educators employ more intensive interventions.

Elementary Counseling
A comprehensive elementary school counselor provides education, prevention and intervention services in the areas of academic, career and social/emotional development supports. It is important to note that elementary counselors are not therapists; rather they are professional educators with a mental health perspective. They typically spend the majority of their time working on universal instruction and working with all students. The elementary counselors will work in collaboration with administration, teachers, the mental health team and parents to determine the needs of all students within each building.
Social and Emotional Health
Important mental health habits—including coping, resilience, and good judgment— help adolescents to achieve overall well being and set the stage for positive mental health in adulthood.
