Camp Creek Elementary School Counselors provide classroom guidance lessons, small group sessions, and individual counseling for students and their families.
The Professional School Counselors at Camp Creek Elementary School implement a data-driven, evidence-based comprehensive school counseling program. The program promotes and enhances student academic achievement, career exploration, and personal/social competencies.
The Gwinnett County Public School Office of Counseling, College and Career Services embraces the use of The American School Counseling Association (ASCA) National Model. The competencies chosen are based on the national model.
Click for GCPS counseling information and resources, including a list of competencies.
In addition to the above program components, the counselors work closely with parents, administrators, and staff on any issue affecting students. The information that is discussed with a counselor is confidential. The exception to this would be if a student is being harmed, plans to harm himself or someone else.
The counselors are available daily during school hours or by appointment, and can also be reached by calling the school at (770) 921-1626.
Departmental Programs
Attendance
Prompt and regular school attendance is vital for student success! Camp Creek students may enter the building at 8:20 a.m. and are considered tardy if they arrive after 8:50 a.m. Students should come to school unless they have a fever or are vomiting.
If your child is absent, please be sure to send in a written note or email/parent square teacher explaining the reason for the absence.
Camp Creek counselors stress the importance of attendance through core curriculum lessons, small group sessions, and individual consultations with students, parents, and teachers.
Link below is GCPS policies for attendance.
Care Team
Camp Creek’s Care Team helps students in need. We are fortunate to partner with several community resources, including the Lilburn Woman's Club. Please contact your grade level counselor if you are in need of school supplies, economic resources or support.
Small Groups
Students at Camp Creek may have the opportunity to participate in a small group covering a variety of topics that are beneficial for school success! Camp Creek students may be referred through the RTI (Response to Intervention) process, through the use of data, and by a teacher or parent referral. Some of the small groups that have been offered at Camp Creek include emotional regulation, self-control, study skills, resiliency, social skills, self-esteem building, and more. For more information, please contact your grade level counselor.
Career Day
A school event that connects students with business partners and community leaders to learn about different careers and industries. Career days help students explore careers, learn about the workplace, and make connections between school and the workplace. Students can learn about careers that align with their interests and skills, and they can get a realistic picture of what it's like to work in a variety of fields.
