Dear Parents and Guardians,
The School Counseling Program at Heritage Middle School serves all students in grades 6-8th and focuses on growth in:
· personal/social development,
· academic development, and
· career awareness.
We serve students in a variety of settings, including classroom guidance lessons and individual and/or group counseling. Topics include bully prevention, career exploration, social skills, study skills, and positive self-image. Lessons are designed as appropriate for each student’s grade level and developmental level.
If you have a concern about your child’s academic and/or emotional well-being, please contact us and make a referral. Referrals may also come directly from the student or a teacher when they recognize a need. If you would like for your child NOT to participate in school counseling, you have the right to request in writing that your child be exempt.
In addition to counseling, Mrs. Reid and Mrs. Burkett are Coordinators for our school’s Response to Intervention (RTI) and 504 services. These services and the school counseling program combine with the faculty and staff at HMS to make a difference in the life of your child. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of his/her education!
We hope your child has a wonderful year, full of excitement about learning. We believe this happens with your support and the enriching experiences that our teachers plan. We appreciate you!
Mrs. Rachel Reid & Mrs. Ashley Burkett
