| The
Pinelands Regional Student Services Department
offers a variety of counseling services to
students and their families. The department
takes pride in the genuineness of our staff and
the knowledge that all student/clients will be
treated empathetically with unconditional
positive regard. Our staff is not only
certified, but the majority possess state and/or
national counseling licenses or the requirements
for such licenses. Personal, career and
educational counseling as well as substance
abuse awareness, intervention and educational
programs are an integral part of the district
wide student service curriculum.
Students in each building are assigned to an
"alpha" counselor who will be that
students' professional helper while the student
is at Pinelands. Additionally, that counselor
will act as a liaison between the home and the
school. Any parental inquiries or concerns
should be directed to this counselor. No
question will go unanswered or concern
considered insignificant. For those students who
may have more pressing personal issues, major
problems or concerns or substance abuse
problems, each building is staffed by a
substance awareness coordinator/student
assistance counselor licensed not only
educationally but also nationally with expertise
in these areas.
