Welcome to Burke Counseling and Burke Social Worker Page
The role of the Burke School Counselor is to help students develop their Personal Learning Plan, using Academic Planner in Infinite campus; this enables students to plan their coursework for four years. Counselors also help all students develop academic achievement strategies, interpersonal skills, manage their emotions, explore career options and plan for postsecondary options (higher education, military, work force). We do this by providing one-on-one supports and by providing lessons through Naviance and in the classroom. Our main areas of focus are academics, college, career, social/ emotional learning. We also help break down barriers to a student’s academic, college/career and social/emotional success. Counselors provide a weekly Counseling Newsletter called “Counseling Corner”.

The role of the Burke Social Worker is to provide services to students and families to assist with academic, social/emotional and behavioral development. I work closely with school counselors to support students and families with issues that extend beyond the school doors. Such issues may include referrals and support for food, housing, and other resources to support basic needs.
