School counselors are an integral link in the chain that supports our children’s pursuit of academic, emotional, and social success. They are specially trained educators who possess a master's degree. School counselors work with school faculty, staff, students, parents, and the community to plan, implement, and evaluate a developmental guidance and counseling program.
