Greetings Patwin Families!
I am Melinda Coates, school counselor at Patwin, I’m so excited to be at school full-time this year. What does school counseling look like here at Patwin?
Over the course of the school year I will lead:
- 8 classroom lessons in each grade level covering developmentally appropriate topics including problem solving, conflict resolution, friendship, managing emotions and anti-bullying
- Small group counseling
- Individual counseling to students in crisis
- Collaboration with teachers and staff to address academic and social-emotional needs of students at school
- Provide resources to students and families when needed
- Participate on the climate committee to help provide a positive school climate
I’m excited for a wonderful year ahead! If you have questions please reach out through email
