Clara Barton School Counselor & Social Services Information

Clara Barton counselors facilitate social-emotional, academic, and career development. We work with students individually, in groups, and in the classroom. We collaborate with teachers, para-educators, building staff, and administration to provide a support system for all students.

Open communication is an important component to school success. Please feel free to contact us at any time to discuss services or share any academic, behavioral or social/emotional concerns you may have for your child.
