Welcome to Cook Middle School Counseling Services!
Welcome to the Cook Middle School Counseling Department! Our school counselors are here to support students throughout the middle school years as they navigate academic, social, emotional, and personal growth.
The middle school years are a time of significant transition. Students are developing their identities, building relationships, learning to manage emotions and responsibilities, and beginning to think more intentionally about their futures. We believe students are most successful when they feel known, supported, safe, and valued.
Our counselors work collaboratively with students, families, teachers, administrators, and community partners to help every student reach their full potential. We believe that counseling is not just about helping students when they are struggling, but it is also about helping students build the skills, confidence, relationships, and resilience they need to thrive.
The Cook Middle School Counseling Program is committed to supporting the whole student by providing a comprehensive school counseling program that promotes academic achievement, college and career readiness, and social-emotional development.
Our goal is to help every student recognize their strengths, develop healthy relationships, make responsible decisions, overcome challenges, and feel prepared for their next steps in life.
We strive to create a counseling program where every student has access to support and every student knows they matter.
Students do not have to wait until they are experiencing a major problem to talk with a school counselor. They are welcome to reach out when they are:
Students are encouraged to speak openly with their school counselor, and counselors respect student privacy within the limits of professional and legal requirements.
There are times when a counselor may need to share information in order to protect a student's safety or the safety of others. School counselors are required to take appropriate action when there is a concern involving abuse or neglect, serious danger to a student or another person, or other circumstances requiring intervention by law or school policy.
Our priority is always the safety, well-being, and best interest of the student.
