SCMS Counseling Office

"Believe you can and you're halfway there."

-Theodore Roosevelt

The middle school years are full of transitions and growth.  The SCMS counseling office is here to offer support to students and their families.  Students are supported in understanding more about themselves, and they are offered help to problem solve any issues that may arise with social, academic, career concerns at home or at school.
