What Every School Counselor Wishes They Could Say to THAT Parent

The longer you work in school counseling, the more you'll meet.

Disgruntled parents that CANNOT be pleased or have completely unrealistic expectations about your job scope and time. 

It's frustrating when you're giving your all to serve your students but get told you're not doing enough, or you're not doing the right things.

Or worse yet, they don't tell you. They go straight to your principal.

This episode is a letter* to “THAT parent": a cathartic manifesto, straight from the heart, intended to remind you, School Counselor, that when you’re in a difficult situation, you’re not alone.

Note: This "letter" is for illustrative purposes only and is in no way intended to be a suggestion of parent communication or a depiction of any particular person.


Our goal at School for School Counselors is to help school counselors stay on fire, make huge impacts for students, and catalyze change for our roles through grassroots advocacy and collaboration. Listen to get to know more about us and our mission, feel empowered and inspired, and set yourself up for success in the wonderful world of school counseling.
