The Counseling Staff at CKHS provides a variety of services to assist students with their high school and post high school academic planning, college applications, scholarship information, and any issues that may arise to support and ensure academic success.
Many helping professionals are available through the Career/Counseling Center including a drug/alcohol counselor, a school psychologist and school nurse, as well as professionals from the community who serve students within the building. Parents and students may confer with any school counselor for further information on services available.
Positive behavioral
interventions and supports (PBIS) as a highly effective way
to build children’s social-emotional-behavioral skills and
reduce challenging behaviors. PBIS can be effectively used at home
too and is especially helpful when events disrupt normal routines
(e.g., worldwide health pandemics, natural disasters, extended
breaks). Attached in the above link are some recommendations for families and
caregivers on how to use PBIS to support their children’s social and
emotional growth and minimize behavioral disruptions in the home.
