School Counseling Program at Longfellow Elementary
In order to meet with the school counselor referrals and appointments can be made. Your student will also be involved in classroom guidance lessons and some students will receive individual or group counseling sessions.

The School Counselor can serve as a mediator and will collaborate in order to more effectively meet student needs. These efforts place attention onto the whole child; an important counseling technique and teaching of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
