Welcome students and parents to the 2009/2010 school year! I hope it is off to a wonderful start. My name is Karen Trivett, and I am your student’s school counselor. I have spent the last few weeks visiting each class and reviewing my role as the school counselor. 

 

Students were reminded that I am here to help them feel good about themselves so that they can be happy and do their best in school. As their counselor, I will be able to work with them individually, in small groups, as well as in the classroom. I will also work with their parents and guardians so that each of them can do their best in school. Students were reminded that they may ask their teacher to visit me, they may be part of small group, and they will see me during regularly scheduled classroom guidance lessons.

 

Throughout the school year, the Prince William School Counseling Curriculum will be taught in each grade level. Academic Development, Career Development, and Personal/Social Development are included in the curriculum. Classes are scheduled for 30-45 minutes, depending on grade level, and will go on throughout the school year. Additional lessons may be scheduled based on specific needs. 

 

I look forward to a great school year with each student!
