Counseling Services
This page was created to provide staff, students, and parents a variety of resources, as well as make them aware of the services offered to all students. Guidance lessons include topics on self-esteem, positive actions, anger management, responsibility, decision making, feelings, friendship, grief, and getting along with others. Our counseling program includes individual and group sessions. Alief ISD's Guidance and Counseling Program is a comprehensive, developmental guidance program based on the state's model. Professional counselors are available on all Alief ISD's campuses to provide services for all of our students.
