The students in grades 3-6 will be taking the ISTEP+ March 5-14. Duirng these days, please make sure your child is getting enough sleep, eats a healthy breakfast each morning, brings sharpened pencils to school, and remind them to read all of the questions and take their time. Provide students with positive encouragement - encourage them to do their best and give it their all!
RICHER Principle of Caring
Our topic in guidance education lessons during the weeks of February 6-24 is Caring. Students are learning the importance of showing caring/kindness to others, how they can show caring, as well as respecting eachother's differences. We are all unique in our own ways!

RICHER Principle of Excellence
During the weeks of January 9-27, 2012, I went into each classroom to do a lesson on the RICHER Principle of Excellence. During this time, we also talked about the importance of setting goals and how this could lead you to Excellence, not only in school, but in other areas of your life as well.
No Name-Calling Week
During the week of January 23-27, Eastview celebrated No Name-Calling Week. During this week, 6th grade students read a short essay about no name-calling week, on the morning announcements tips about bullying and what to do were shared with the students, and everyone at Eastview was encouraged to sign a pledge stating that they will treat people with respect.

Welcome to the Counselor's Corner!

Hello and thank you for visiting my website! My name is Renee Winner and I am the school counselor at Eastview Elementary School.

"Elementary school years set the tone for developing the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary for children to become healthy, competent, and confident learners. Through a comprehensive developmental school counseling program, elementary school counselors work as a team with the school staff, parents, and the community to create a caring climate and atmosphere. By providing education, prevention, early identification, and intervention, elementary school counselors can help all children reach academic success."
-American School Counselor Association

A school counselor is an educator who...
*Advocates for all the students at school.
*Provides individual and small group counseling.
*Works with teachers and parents to provide helpful suggestions and support for children's needs.
*Provides classroom guidance for every class.
*Helps in identifying academic and social/emotional needs of children.
*Helps children understand themselves and others.
*Provides information about community resources that would benefit children.
*Makes referrals to outside agencies.
*Provides parents with resources and information.

Eastview Elementary is a character-based school where students not only learn the academic skills needed to succeed, but also the life skills needed to become a successful adult. Easview's counseling program offers that outlet for students to learn about themselves and others through guidance education lessons, small group counseling, and individual counseling. I also work collaboratively with parents and teachers to further assist in the student's academic, personal, and career development. I am very excited to meet all of our wonderful students and work with their families throughout the school year!

Please contact me if you have any concerns regarding your child or if you have any questions about the counseling program. I will be updating this website throughout the school year.
