Counseling Support Services
School counselors provide services to students, parents, school staff and the community in the following
areas:
Direct Student Services:
Direct services are in-person interactions between school counselors and students and include the
following:
•
•
School counseling core curriculum: This curriculum consists of structured lessons designed to
help students attain the desired competencies and to provide all students with the
knowledge, attitudes and skills appropriate for their developmental level. The school
counseling core curriculum is delivered throughout the school’s overall curriculum and is
systematically pre-sented by school counselors in collaboration with other professional
educators in classroom and group activities.
Individual student planning: School counselors coordinate ongoing systemic activities
designed to assist students in establishing personal goals and developing future plans.
Responsive services:
Responsive services are activities designed to meet students’ immediate needs and concerns.
Responsive services may include counseling in individual or small-group settings or crisis response.
Indirect Student Services:
Indirect services are provided on behalf of students as a result of the school counselors’ interactions
with others including referrals for additional assistance, consultation and collaboration with parents,
teachers, other educators and community organizations.
Crisis Intervention Team
This team of administrators, counselors, and other support staff provide advice and assistance in
the event of a major crisis situation. Birmingham Public Schools believes in the role of a dedicated
fulltime crisis counselor to assist with personal intervention for students who may be going through
a crisis. This could be regarding abuse, divorce, death, drug use, peer difficulties, gender issues, or
any other social/emotional problem that may interfere with functioning in school or life.
