The guidance department is an important part of Kelly Elementary. The school counselors supports students and staff by collaborating with grade level teams, serving as a member of the MTSS, SAP, PBIS, and Crisis Response Team(s), screening students for the gifted program as well as working with students 1-1, in small groups and also through scheduled classroom lessons.
