Yolanda Adams and Safiya Muhammad are the school counselors at Oak Street Elementary. Please reach out if you ever have any questions or concerns. We are here to help!

School counselors work with students in grades 3 - 5 to identify short- and long-term academic, personal-social. Utilizing these goals, counselors help students and families identify current and future goals, possible barriers to success, and solutions. In this way, school counselors and students are able to plan for goal-attainment while also reinforcing problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

School counselors are able to provide assistance to students and schools in moments of need through individual and group or classroom lessons. By building relationships with students, teachers, administrators, parents, and community members, counselors are quickly able to respond to one child or an entire school with resources and support.

The school counselor is available to parents, teachers, and other educational professionals to discuss student concerns and develop proactive plans for student achievement. School counselors are knowledgeable about the educational process; child and adolescent development; and local, state, and national resources. Through this collaboration and their awareness of the "whole" child, school counselors are able to build bridges to academic success.

The school counselors teach lessons in the classroom every other week on a variety of topics such as zones of regulation, building healthy habits, developing character traits, and bullying prevention.
