How Counselors at Level Creek serve Students

Gwinnett County Counseling Curriculum

The role of a professional school counselor is to work with teachers, parents, and students to help remove any barriers to learning that might exist in a child's world. Through classroom lessons, students gain knowledge in the areas of academic skills, career awareness, and social/personal development.

Small counseling groups are also available to support students in a variety of ways. School counselors collaborate with parents and teachers to provide support to students and may coordinate with community agencies to provide resources to struggling families. In short, your school counselor can be a tremendous asset during your child's educational career!

Please don't hesitate to reach out any time you have a question or a concern!
