The Purpose of the Midlands Middle College School Counseling Program

The Midlands Middle College School Counseling Program is here to empower all students to become productive and contributing members of society. In partnership with families, staff, and the community, school counselors provide a developmental program following the American School Counselor Associations standards that addresses students’ academic, personal/social and college and career development.


Student Services Provided

Individual Counseling

Personal, social and academic counseling are available during the school day. It should be noted that individual counseling is not therapeutic in nature, as it is beyond the role of the school counselor to conduct in-depth, on-going individual sessions. Sessions are kept confidential except when students disclose that they are being hurt, are hurting someone else, or want to hurt themselves.  If the need arises, students may be referred to an outside agency.

Group Counseling
Students may attend counseling with groups of students who have common interests or concerns. These groups are created by the school counselors based on the academic, personal and social needs of the students.

Classroom Guidance
The foundation for the instruction of life skills meets the American School Counselor Association National Model in the domains of academic achievement, career and college exploration, and personal social growth.

Advisement
All students receive consultation regarding graduation requirements and post secondary planning. Individual Graduation Plan (IGP) meetings are held with each student and parent/guardian.

Parent Consultation
The school counselors are available to assist parents with concerns regarding their students.

Responsive Services
The school counselors respond to the needs of students, staff and community in times of crisis.
