Counselor Referral Form - Parent Referral: If your child or your family is experiencing a life-changing event or challenge- It might be helpful for your child to speak with a school counselor. If you have a concern that you would like the counselor to discuss with your child, please fill out the Parent Referral Form. When filling out the form, please include as much relevant detail about your concerns and the situation as possible.
