Peer Support

Peer Support consists of approximately twenty junior and senior students who are selected and trained by the professional counseling staff to meet in small groups with eighth graders on a weekly basis during school time throughout the year. They discuss issues of contemporary teen interest as they arise in the lives of group members. Peer support leaders are chosen for their natural inclination towards helping others. Through the training they receive, they become peer helpers to whomever they encounter through the routine interactions in their daily lives.
