So Who Is our School Counselor? And what exactly does she do??
My name is Heather Fritz. I am currently in my 6th year as a school counselor with Washington County Public Schools and my fourth year here at Paramount. I am currently employed full time, but I am split between two schools. I am available at Paramount on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays throughout the school year. The rest of my time I am working at Conococheague Elementary School.
So what exactly does a school counselor do??
Our role is quite broad and can vary from school to school, but we are always first and foremost an advocate for our students and families. We work to ensure that each of our students is reaching their full potential. While we do focus on academics, because, well, we are school counselors; we also work with students to broaden their views of careers and college, as well as working on their personal and social development.
So how can we work together to create success for you child??
