We are fortunate to have one full-time counselor and one half time counselor here at Ventana Vista.  The counseling program is a developmentally based guidance program offering instruction in the classrooms in areas such as peer group interaction, cooperation, transition, understanding feelings, conflict resolution, new student adjustments, changing families, friendship skills, and grief and loss. Additionally, the counselor is available to support parents, students, and staff with problem solving and community referrals.

​

Many students have the opportunity to participate in a variety of groups, based on need, with the counselors sometime during the school year. Students who are new to Ventana Vista participate in new student groups at the beginning of the year.

​

The school counselors plays an integral role in the development of our students and provides the needed support for students and their families.

 

The counselor can be reached by calling the school office at 520-209-8000 or emailing, gchapman@cfsd16.org or nharvey@cfsd16.org.
