If you have found this website by accident, welcome. If you have been directed here, you may already work with one of the school counsellors listed below. Please email the school counsellor for your designated school in the Southeast Kootenay School District if you need/want further information on a topic or you can not find what you need or you are wanting to personally connect with a school counsellor for yourself or your child.
Please be advised that school counsellors may only check emails during school hours: therefore, it may take over 48 hours to respond. If this is a parent in an urgent situation, please contact the administration of the school. If this is a student in need of immediate help, please call the Emergency contact numbers listed on the home page.
