A kindergarten through eighth-grade school counseling program is an integral part of the total educational process. Student, teacher and parent needs must be met in order to facilitate learning in the optimum educational environment. Counselors in Catholic schools enhance the learning environment by providing many services. Among these are individual and small group counseling, coordination of school/community outreach, teacher support, parent support, academic support of the student, promotion of a healthy Christian lifestyle, coordination of the bullying and sexual harassment curriculum and coordination of the Archdiocese of Mobile’s Children and Adolescents Protection Program. In addition, school counselors are required by law to report suspected abuse or neglect. Finally, school counselors meet the developmental and educational needs of students through classroom guidance. These needs have been identified by the Alabama Department of Education. They are personal development, educational development, social development, and career development. By targeting these areas of development, school counselors can help their students meet the demands of school as well as the demands of our world today.
