  • WELCOME to the Excellence in Leadership Academy Counseling Page.

    School Counseling is a developmental process in which one individual (the counselor) provides another individual or group (student(s)), with guidance and encouragement, as well as challenge and inspiration in creatively managing and resolving practical, personal, and relationship issues to help students achieve their goals. 

     

  • Mission Statement

    The mission of Excellence in Leadership Academy's school counseling program is to provide a comprehensive school counseling program that assists all students to be productive citizens in our community and lifelong learners through academic, personal, and social-emotional growth and development.

  • ELA Counselor is responsive to campus needs, provides services per TEC 33.005, and follows the Texas Model for Comprehensive School Counseling Programs

    The model is based on the following four components:

    Guidance Curriculum, Individual Planning, Responsive Service, and System Support

    Based on a comprehensive developmental guidance and counseling program promoting student success through a focus on academic achievement, prevention and intervention activities, advocacy, and social/emotional and career development to meet the needs of the students and community of ELA.

    The Social-Emotional Learning of the Comprehensive Model 

    We are implementing Purposeful People-Character Strong as our new SEL (Social Emotional Learning) Curriculum, guided by the principles of BE KIND, BE STRONG, and BE WELL. The basic traits taught during the SEL classes are Respect, Responsibility, gratitude, Empathy, Perseverance, Honesty, Cooperation, Courage, and Creativity.
