Counseling Program:
The counseling program at Windsor Oaks helps to foster and maintain a positive educational environment while working collaboratively with teachers and staff to ensure that all students acquire the effective learning skills they need to be successful in school and throughout life. Counselors use classroom guidance lessons, small group sessions, and individual counseling to address the ever-changing developmental needs of our students. “A developmentally designed guidance curriculum is implemented to enhance student academic success by promoting academic, career, and personal/social development for all students” (VBCPS). Guidance lessons focus on areas such as the Principles of Citizenship, test-taking skills, study skills, and conflict resolution.
