Welcome
to the
Counselor's Corner

"Once an orca, always an orca" 

I am Marie Cousy and have returned to Hazelwood as the school counselor after an absence of about 15 years.  I am very excited to once again be an orca. 
I look foward to talking with students and families as we guide students through this school year.

While I will often be out and about visiting classrooms and on the playground, I can best be reached by e-mail at
mcousy@auburn.wednet.edu.  Parents needing to discuss an issue but, not able to come into to see me can always arrange an appointment for a phone conference. The main office number is 
253-931-4540.
I look foward to a wonderful school year for our
Hazelwood community!


Counselor Mission Statement
 Auburn School District Elementary Counselors assist students in the development of their academic, personal, social, and career potential, while inspiring them to become resilient responsible citizens.
 
The Role of School Counselors

Classroom Guidance
School counselors design and implement classroom guidance lessons on a range of topics, some of which include problem solving skills, conflict resolution skills, bullying prevention, and personal safety lessons.
Individual and Group Counseling
School counselors meet students as individuals and in groups addressing for example, friendship, divorce, grief and loss, behavior management issues. In addition, the school counselor assists in crisis intervention and school success skills.
System Support
School counselors consult with other school professionals on student issues, assisting and developing intervention plans. They also provide community resources for caregivers. In addition, school counselors seek to improve school climate and implement a school wide bullying prevention program.
Parent/Caregiver Support
School counselors collaborate and support parents and caregivers on student issues and provide needed information on resources.
