There are many ways that students end up in conversation with me/ in my office; here
are the most common ways:
Self-referral: Students are able to give me notes if they wish to visit me or let their
teacher know. This is a great way for kids to advocate for themselves when they
have something they want to talk about.
Staff-referral: Teachers come to me when there are social-emotional concerns or
when there's a behavior that they would like help with.
Referral from home: Parents and guardians are welcome to call me with
questions or concerns that they have.
Peer-referral: When students see a friend or classmate in need of help, they can
leave me a note to express their concerns.
I can be reached by email at hparker@bethelsd.org or by phone at 253.800.5178.
