In the past I have given each grade level a sheet for small group counseling nominations. Naturally, I have decided to simplify this process by creating a Google Doc for teachers/staff to submit names of students they would like to possibly be in one of my counseling groups. Google Docs will transfer the responses and places them into a spreadsheet!
So EASY!
So EASY!
I gave the teachers a week to submit names via the Google Doc. Once all names are submitted I review the nominations and assign groups. I will "Juggle" all nominations by having the students participate in either group counseling or individual sessions with me.
Of course, I may have opened Pandora's Box...

These nominations help to give additional information regarding specific students who may not have needed an official referral to the counselor before. (i.e. academic/skills group and grief)

Huge Shout Out to some fabulous followers on my FB page for providing these creative names for the groups!
