Welcome to a new year at North Lee! We are Lea Myers and Lorri Wickam, the School Counselors for our school. For those who are new to North Lee, we will be meeting you in your classrooms very soon. Our goal, as school counselors, is to serve the needs of all students as they develop academically, personally, and socially, through classroom guidance, one-to-one counseling, and small-group counseling. Thank you for your interest in the school counseling program, and if you need to speak with us on any matters, please feel free to contact us.
- HOW CAN A SCHOOL COUNSELOR HELP ME?
The School Counselor works with every student in Kindergarten through fifth grades to help make school a safe and good place. Together, the school counselor assists students to understand things like good manners, how to make friends, and what to do when you're feeling bad. School Counselors are trained to help kids understand some of the confusing things about life. If you have questions about things that are going on at home or at school, the school counselor can help you find answers to those questions. If something or someone is bothering you and getting in the way of your learning, the school counselor can help you figure out how to get past or resolve the problem. And if she can't help you, she'll find someone else who can.
We aim to guide our students to be "Leaders for Life". Our guidance lessons will focus on Leadership as well as the subjects listed below.
