Counseling Center
The Dieterich Middle School counseling philosophy is to work with all students to determine their unique abilities and strengths to enable them to set realistic goals to achieve in the future. Each student brings individual perspectives, talents, goals and backgrounds to the table, and it is our goal to help students identify strategies to capitalize on their uniqueness. Through collaboration with administrators, teachers, parents, students, and the community; it is our hope to provide the proper resources and direction to achieve in all areas including academic, social/emotional and career/college preparation.
