Student Support Teams

PURPOSE
People in different roles partner together in support of your student. Each child is matched with an associate principal, counselor, and dean. In collaboration with our Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) Facilitator/School Psychologist, these three roles meet regularly to discuss student grade data, attendance and any matters around behavior. Our social workers are consulted as needed.

ASSOCIATE PRINCIPALS
Associate Principals oversee your teen’s support team and can help connect you with the appropriate person(s) to best support them.

COUNSELORS
Counselors offer support to help each student’s personal, social, career and/or academic progress. Students are matched with a counselor based on the student’s last name:

Grades 9-12

CAREER RESOURCE CENTER
Abby Gee is our College & Career Student Specialist who helps with all topics related to imagining college and
career options, and developing proactive plans toward those. All students and families have access to the College & Career
Center, now located inside the Counseling Office in Student Center East.

DEANS
Deans support students with positive behavior and attendance toward their academic success.

SOCIAL WORKERS
Social Workers at EPHS provide services to students to enhance their emotional well-being and improve their academic performance. Social Workers are often called on to help students, families, and teachers address problems such as truancy, social withdrawal, overaggressive behaviors, rebelliousness, and the effects of special physical, emotional, or economic problems. Social Workers help connect families with supportive resources in the community.
CULTURAL LIAISONS
DATA-BASED INSTRUCTION SITE COACH
The Data-Based Instruction Site Coach leads data analysis and decision making systems to design and implement tiered levels of support to effectively meet the needs of each student.
