Need to meet with the School Counselor?

Individual Counseling is an important component of the comprehensive developmental guidance program at A.C. Moore Elementary. Individual counseling is short-term counseling that is available to ALL students who are experiencing negative feelings such as worry, sadness, fear, disappointment, anger, loneliness, or frustration or for those who just need a listening ear.  Mrs. Balthazor will meet via Teams with individual students to improve their social skills, discuss feelings, and provide them with the skills necessary for problem solving.  All discussions are confidential.  Please click the link below if you or your child would like to schedule an appointment with Mrs. Balthazor.  She will reach out to you to schedule a meeting via teams shortly.
