Welcome
 Parents and Students!

Welcome to the Seventh Grade East Middle School Counseling Website.  I am Barb Holden, counselor for the Dynamo, Radical and Supersonics teams.   I serve all 7th graders at East Middle School and work with these students, their families, and their teachers until these students leave East to attend Great Falls High School.

My goal is to provide the academic, career and personal/social skills and support these students need to navigate the unique middle school years.  The links on this website will provide more details on how this will happen.

The counseling program at East Middle School provides services for all students. The Program is based upon  the American School Counselor Association National Model and the work of the Montana School Counselor Association.

The East Middle School Counseling Department has outlined their entire program for you .  Read more about it in the East Middle School Comprehensive Guidance and Counseling Program. read more 

The foundation of our Counseling Program is the GFPS District Comprehensive Guidance and Counseling Program approved in 2008. Read more about the Middle School Curriculum (and the 7-8 Curriculum Overview)
