The vision of Bowen’s Corner Elementary School comprehensive school counseling program is for all students to persist and strive towards academic, career and personal goals. With the support of parental involvement, business partnerships, cultural awareness, collaborative interventions, all students will be a part of a safe, welcoming, and trusting school community. Students will communicate and share ideas with respect for self and others. Through student driven learning experiences, critical thinking skills, equitable access and use of technology, all BCE students are empowered to become future life-long leaders and learners in the 21st century workforce. Bowen’s Corner students are adaptable, creative, determined, empathetic advocates prepared to create a future we dare to imagine.

Counsel. Advocate. Educate. Empower.

What does a school counselor do? We work alongside teachers, administrators, parents and stakeholders to help students develop socially and emotionally, and to help remove any barriers they have to learning.

Counselors teach a comprehensive school counseling curriculum for grades K4-5 on a monthly schedule, along with providing individual counseling, academic student support and small-group services.
