Millennium Middle
School Counseling
The Counseling faculty at Millennium Middle School is made
up of two guidance counselors; both work with students
individually, in classrooms, or in groups. They help
students with concerns about personal and social adjustment,
career planning and scheduling. Counselors work closely with
administrators, teachers and parents guiding students
mentally, emotionally and socially, while facilitating a
safe, wholesome middle-school environment in which to live
and learn.
