Counselors

Our counselors at Silsbee Elementary are invaluable members of the school community, playing a crucial role in supporting the emotional, social, and academic well-being of students. With their expertise in child development, interpersonal skills, and a compassionate approach, elementary counselors contribute significantly to creating a positive and nurturing school environment.

They provide a safe and confidential space for students to express their thoughts, feelings, and concerns. They offer a listening ear and a nonjudgmental perspective, helping students navigate the challenges they may face both inside and outside of the classroom.

Collaboration with parents and guardians is a significant aspect of the elementary counselor's role. They provide guidance to families, helping them navigate challenges at home and offering strategies to support their child's emotional and academic growth.

In essence, our counselors wear many hats, acting as mentors, advocates, and emotional anchors for students. Their expertise in child development, counseling techniques, and interpersonal skills makes them essential partners in creating a positive, supportive, and inclusive school environment that fosters the overall well-being and success of every student.
