Responsibilities vary from campus to campus with most all providing the following:
• counseling of individual students or groups with regard to academic, social, and emotional concerns
• conferring with parents about their student's academic life and related concerns
• meeting with teachers and principal to plan appropriate interventions and make special referrals when needed
• maintaining accurate records on all our students, including exchanging records with other school districts when students move
• coordinating the administration of TAKS and any other standardized testing on the campus.
The school counselor is available to assist students with a wide range of personal concerns, including such areas as social, family, or emotional issues, or substance abuse. The counselor may also make available information about community resources to address these concerns.
