YOU and your students are missed!  
With the closing of school, it can stir up a lot of feelings: scary, alarming, lonely, weird and even fun.  Like all the tough stuff in life, it can be complicated!  We want you to know that we are in this TOGETHER!  By working together, we can reduce the worry that surrounds the COVID-19 virus.  Together is better.  We will do everything we can to provide your student with care and support, even outside the typical school house. 

Below are some of the ways that our Elkton School Counseling Program will support your student at home:
