Counseling
The Counseling Program at Rea View Elementary provides classroom guidance lessons, small groups counseling, short-term individual counseling and crisis intervention to our students, as well as consultation for parents and teachers. The purpose of the program is to assist our students in developing into excited and successful learners by fostering a positive social, emotional, and academic environment. The school counselor advocates for all students to work towards a happy, safe, and successful school year. Please click here to visit my website!
We are excited to introduce the book The 7 Habits of Happy Kids, by Sean Covey, to our students. The book is full of life long principles that will help prepare each student to be successful. Our goal is that our student will adopt these habits as their own and allow themselves to grow to their fullest potential.- Habit 1: Be proactive. You’re In charge.
- Habit 2: Begin with the end in mind. Have a plan.
- Habit 3: Put first things first. Work first then play.
- Habit 4: Think win-win. Everyone can win.
- Habit 5: Seek first to understand, then to be understood. Listen before you talk.
- Habit 6: Synergize. Together is better.
- Habit 7: Sharpen the saw. Balance feels best.

UCPS partners with Project 10Million
Project 10Million is an initiative aimed at delivering internet connectivity to millions of underserved student households at no cost to them. Project 10Million offers 100GBs/year of free data and free mobile hotspots to eligible students participating in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP)--one per household. Schools will need to identify and qualify students as being NSLP-participants. Applications for the National School Lunch Program are available online at https://www.lunchapplication.com/ or by contacting your school’s cafeteria. Approval letters are sent to qualifying students and the letter must be presented to the School Hotspot Administrator to prove eligibility for the Project 10Million program. Schools will then request a hotspot for the eligible student from Technology Services and it will be available for the student to pick up at the school.
UCPS has applied for Emergency Connectivity Funding through USAC to provide devices to students who are not eligible for the Project 10Million program. Funding announcements will be made in September. At this time there are no hotspots available except through Project 10Million. Check back for updates.
