SVAHS has two full time school adjustment counselors. School adjustment counselors provide counseling to students who have social/emotional issues that directly impact their ability to learn or function within the school community. Counseling may include direct instruction on coping strategies, self-regulation, behavior intervention, etc. Counseling may be delivered via regular education or through an Individualized Education Plan (special education).
SVAHS has one part-time school social worker. The social worker's role is to connect with students and families who may be struggling with attendance. The school social worker can also assist students and families with locating helpful resources and conducting home visits to provide additional support.
SVAHS has a school psychologist. The school psychologist provides psychoeducational evaluations and consultation for students on Individual Education Plans (IEP). The school psychologist also oversees the 504 process.
If you have further questions regarding School Adjustment Counseling, would like to refer a child for counseling, or questions about other services at SVAHS, please contact Student and Career Services at (413) 587-1414 ext. 3402.
