Small group experiences are offered for students throughout the school year.
The following groups will be offered during school hours, one day a week, for
about six weeks. Groups normally run for approximately thirty minutes during
a time selected by the counselor and the students' teachers. Group
experiences have to remain small and not everyone who signs up will be
offered an opportunity to be in a group at that particular time. Groups are
a wonderful time for students to learn new skills, learn from their peers,
and offer support to one another.
Current Groups
Here are some groups that will be offered throughout the year:
Banana Splits (Blended families and divorced/separated parents)-This group

develop the skills needed to make friends and be a friend.
The Cool Kids Club (Anger control group)-This group helps children learn how
to say "cool" in "hot" situations.

process and hot to get through them.
