OES Counseling Department

Welcome to the Ossian Elementary School Guidance and Counseling Department. Here at Ossian Elementary we have one full-time counselor, Mrs. Karen Albrecht, and one part-time counselor, Mrs. Cami Shelton, who are available to assist each student.

Our mission is to support all students by providing:

-guidance in academic, career, and citizenship development,

-counseling to help students overcome challenges that interfere with learning,

-advocacy for an environment that supports high achievement for all students,
-program management to facilitate student success.

Our goal is for all students to become successful learners, responsible citizens, and productive members of a global economy. We provide large group, small group and individual guidance and counseling services to students and parents. In addition to scheduled services, we also welcome and encourage student- or parent- initiated appointments.

Resources for Families

We want every student to feel safe, happy, and ready to learn! If your child needs school supplies or field trip assistance, please contact one of the counselors to let us know how we can help. Supplies include backpacks, folders, notebooks, school boxes, pencils/pens, markers, glue, scissors, and headphones. We also keep a limited supply of gym shoes in the nurse's office.

If your family would like to help other students by providing needed supplies or donate to the field trip assistance fund, please contact one of the counselors.
