​

Pay attention in class and work to the best of your ability at all times.
Will the counselor tell my parents and teachers everything I say?
When we talk I will do my best to keep our conversations confidential. Confidential means “between you and me”. If we are talking about how angry you are at your sister or how worried you are about you math class… things like that we can keep that between you and me.
Sometimes, however the counselor may have to break our confidentiality and ask for more help. A reason I may do this is if you plan on hurting yourself or others or if someone is hurting you. If you have questions about this, just ask us!
