GUIDANCE-COUNSELING DEPARTMENT
Welcome to the Garfield Middle School Guidance-Counseling Department. We are always here to help, guide and most importantly support you and your child's social/emotional and educational success at GMS. The counselors provide services that aid students in solving problems and making adjustments to various situations. The School Counselors stay with the same students for the three years that they are in the GMS.
Please take moment to take a deep breath and relax, we know some may feel unsure and uneasy and that is okay. We are in school this year, but there still are many changes and we are here to guide and help you along the way. We are available Monday-Friday 8am-3:05pm. Please check out our website often. There are helpful resources and supports under useful resources tab.
