Why Are Counseling Services Available in an Elementary School?

The elementary school experience can influence a child for many years ahead.  Occasionally children need assistance with developmental challenges such as making friends, separating from parents while at school and learning appropriate social behavior.  Some children may encounter difficulties that can impact their ability to learn such as divorce or separation from family, moving, or loss of a loved one.  Counseling services are available to assist with these types of concerns.

 

How Do You Contact the School Counselor?

Students can refer themselves by telling their teacher that they would like to speak to the counselor.  Parents may refer their child by stopping by the counselor’s office, sending a note to school, or contacting Ms. Wuller at 674-9080 or heidi.wuller@cr.k12.de.us
