Counselor’s Corner

Our School Counselor, Mr. Best, can be found right in the center of Middle School — available to support all students in the following ways:

  • PreK – 5th grade students will receive monthly Social-Emotional Learning classes and Grades 6 – 8 will be invited to participate in optional small groups with parental permission.
  • Students may participate in “Weekly Check-In’s” in which Mr. Best pulls students individually in order for them to discuss their concerns, stressors, or achievements! Please submit a Consent of School Counseling Services form to jbest@hspiritschool.org.
  • Mr. Best will collaborate with your students’ outside therapist, psychologist, and other mental health professionals in order to ensure that each student’s overall therapeutic needs are met.
  • Parents are more than welcomed to schedule meetings with Mr. Best to ask for resources, discuss concerns or gain insight in order to help their child succeed throughout the academic school year.

Please feel free to reach out to Mr. Best if he can be of assistance
