Pearl River Middle School Counselors

School Counselors

As each student enters 5th grade, they are assigned a School Counselor based on their last name. This School Counselor is assigned to the student for all of their time in Middle School. The mission of Pearl River Middle School's school counseling program is to provide guidance, counseling and support for each student as he/she grows into a self-directed, responsible and contributing citizen, productive worker and lifelong learner. School counselors collaborate with teachers, administrators, related service providers, students, and parents/guardians to effectively monitor and support academics, attendance, safety, personal/social-emotional health and parent involvement.

School Counselors help students:

- learn the process of decision making
- develop skills in interpersonal relationships
- work toward self-understanding and self-acceptance
- understand and respect individual differences in others
- set and achieve goals
- be a reflective, purposeful, and responsible learner
