Counseling & GUIDANCE at OLG
We are proud to say that Our Lady of Grace Catholic School has a full-time counselor available to our students.
Our school counselor implements classroom guidance lessons, small group activities, and solution-focused brief student counseling. The aim of Guidance Class is to provide students with social/emotional lessons that foster the development of self-awareness, recognition of feelings, enhanced communication, conflict resolution, self-care, resilience, and more. As we nurture the whole person, we recognize the importance for every student to feel safe, seen, and supported.
