The elementary school counselors are available to address the social, emotional and academic needs of all students in grades K-6. The counselors work closely with the administration, staff and parents to help our students feel confident, responsible and productive. They counsel, consult and collaborate with families to provide strategies to improve academic and/or behavioral achievement.

The Positivity Project

The Positivity Project (P2) empowers students to build positive relationships and become their best selves by focusing on positive psychology’s 24 character strengths, such as bravery, perseverance, integrity, and gratitude. P2 partners with Pre-K–12 schools, providing the resources, training, and strategies to help students understand and apply these strengths. This holistic approach involves students, educators, and families, fostering a positive school culture that supports teaching and learning. Learn more about P2's founding story by watching this video.
