Mitchell School Counseling: More on Self-Control

More on Self-Control

The ability to delay gratification is a good predictor of future performance and success in many arenas. Listen to a fascinating podcast “Mischel’s Marshmallows” by RadioLab (one of my favorite programs) and refocus your parenting energies on helping your children learn self-control.

Our role

Professional school counselors serve a vital role in maximizing student success. Through leadership, advocacy and collaboration, counselors promote equity and access to rigorous educational experiences for all students.

Counselors support a safe learning environment and work to safeguard the human rights of all members of the school community. They are expected to address the needs of all students through prevention and intervention programs that are a part of a comprehensive school-counseling program.

Our mission is to provide a comprehensive school counseling program that promotes the academic, career and social/emotional development of all students and assists students in acquiring competencies for life-long learning and success.
