Please complete this form if a student (your child, or yourself as the student) and/or parent/caregiver needs to talk to a school counselor or social worker for any reason.
We ask that you keep the following in mind:
- Please give our staff 24 hours to follow up on requests (Monday-Friday).
- We will do our best to identify a staff member that is a familiar face or voice, but this may not be possible.
- Calls and/or Google Chats are not intended to replace formal counseling services or serve as therapy; if you/your child has a counselor with whom they regularly meet, please contact them about ongoing services.
- We cannot guarantee that our contact will be confidential by HIPAA standards; please let us know if you have any questions or concerns about this.
We will do our best to support our students and families! Thank you for reaching out.
