The Guidance program is a developmental educational program designed to help students acquire the skills through planned educational experiences and activities.
The Southside ISD Guidance Program delivers services to students, parents, and staff through the four components that Texas law (TEC 33.005+) now prescribes for guidance services in Texas Schools.
|The purpose of the Responsive Service component is to intervene with or on behalf of those students in per-kindergarten through 12th grades whose personal circumstance, concerns, or problems are threatening to interfere with or are interfering with their healthy personal, social, career and /or educational development.|
|SYSTEM SUPPORT||The System Support component describes management activities which assure the delivery of a high quality guidance program, and service which indirectly benefit students by supporting other programs.|
|GUIDANCE CURRICULUM||The Guidance Curriculum component includes skill-based lessons and units designed to help all students in kindergarten through 12th grade develop competence in essential life skills.|
|INDIVIDUAL PLANNING||The Individual Planning component is where students are guided in planning, monitoring and managing their own educational, career, personal and social development. Each student is provided with necessary steps toward his/her established goals.|
