Personal Counseling

Personal counselors are available in each of the three schools of Franklin Road Academy. Each counselor strives to optimize the development of students and to assist them in successfully meeting challenges in their lives. Counselors work to educate and support students and parents by teaching, bringing in speakers, and meeting with students individually and in groups.

Topics covered in the classroom include:

Critical Thinking	Honesty
Friendship	Bullying
Conflict Resolution	Nutrition
Peer Pressure	Tobacco
Alcohol and Drugs	Abstinence
Feelings	Manners
Kindness	Giving

We encourage parents and students to contact us to discuss concerns. We are happy to listen, to suggest an outside resource or to meet with parents and/or students.
