SES Guidance Mission Statement: |
|
Due to the unique demands of the Department of
Defense environment, the purpose of the guidance
program at SES is to ensure all students acquire the
attitude, knowledge and skills to participate
constructively and contribute in a multicultural and
transient society. These attributes will be
developed in partnership with our families and community
agencies. |
|
 |
The SES Guidance Program
is developmental, and an integral part of our
classroom education. Although we have school
counselors who manage the guidance program, it is
our teachers who assist students daily in the areas
of self-understanding, respect, and social skills.
Our counselors are committed to the Competency Based
Guidance model which means they write annual
guidance goals for students. Our counselors
understand the hardship which transition
(deployment, frequent PCS, etc.) may cause.
Therefore, a centerpiece of the Guidance Program
addresses dealing with separation and change.
Our counselors focus upon students, but they
are also a valuable resource for parents. Parenting
classes, parent discussion groups, and private
consultations (developing child management
strategies) are some additional guidance activities.
