Standard Respons Protocol (SPR)
SRP is action based with four specific actions that can be performed during an incident. Execution of the action is performed by active participants, including students, staff, teachers and first responders. Please take a moment to review these actions. Students and staff will be trained and the school will drill these actions over the course of the school year. More information can be found at http://iloveuguys.org.
School Counselors help each child to be their best by teaching skills for social, emotional, and personal growth. When students are experiencing distress which makes it difficult for them to participate or focus in the classroom, the counselor can help them to work through current concerns and find resources as needed. Counseling and instruction at Aquinas is always informed by Catholic teaching and its understanding of the human person.
If you have any questions about your child, please feel free to reach out to me.
