Welcome to Guidance and Counseling
The Concord Middle School Guidance Department is here to support both students and parents during this transformative period. Our goal is to assist students in successfully navigating their educational journey and to foster positive relationships with them whenever possible. We maintain open communication with families, school staff, administrators, and community resources to provide a comprehensive support system. Our counselors dedicate approximately forty percent of their time directly to students and another forty percent to collaborating with the adults who support them.
Middle school is a time of significant growth and development, with students experiencing many physical, emotional, intellectual, and social changes. Young adolescents navigate the balance between autonomy and dependency, adapt to new social and educational environments, and embrace higher academic expectations. This period is filled with opportunities for mastery, exploration, and personal development. Students also strengthen their family relationships and explore their sense of self and community. We are here to help you and your child thrive during these exciting middle school years.
