School Counseling Program

Welcome!
Hi! I’m Mrs. Gaouette, the school counselor here at Monroe School! I’m so excited to be part of our wonderful school community and to support our students as they grow academically, socially, and emotionally.

The school counseling program is designed to help every student feel safe, supported, and ready to learn. Through classroom lessons, small groups, and individual check-ins, I help students develop skills in areas such as friendship, problem-solving, emotional regulation, decision-making, and goal setting.

I also collaborate closely with teachers, families, and staff to ensure that each student has what they need to be successful both in and out of the classroom. My goal is to create a welcoming space where students feel comfortable to talk, learn about themselves, and build confidence.

How I Support Students

• Classroom Lessons: Engaging, age-appropriate lessons that build social skills and emotional intelligence.
  
  

• Small Groups: Short-term, supportive groups focused on topics like friendship, managing emotions, confidence, or coping with change.
  
  

• Individual Support: One-on-one meetings for students who need help navigating challenges, emotions, or school situations. This is short term and goal oriented, and is not a replacement for outside therapy, however I can support in making referrals as needed!
  
  

• Collaboration: Partnering with teachers and families to support student well-being and growth.
  
  

When to Reach Out

Students or families can connect with the counselor for support with things like:

• Friendship challenges or peer conflict
  
  

• Coping with emotions or stress
  
  

• Academic motivation or organization
  
  

• Family transitions or changes
  
  

• Building confidence and problem-solving skills
  
  

I believe that every child deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued and I’m here to help make that happen!

Please don’t hesitate to reach out at Jgaouette@monroeschool77.com or 603-638-2800 ext 107 if you have any questions or would like to connect.

A Note About Mandated Reporting

All staff members at Monroe School are Mandated Reporters. This means that if a student shares something that meets the criteria for reporting, we are required by law to contact New Hampshire DCYF Intake.

Once a report is made, it is not our role to investigate, judge, or make assumptions, our responsibility is simply to ensure that the concern is shared with the appropriate agency. Our continued role is to support students and families with care, respect, and confidentiality to the extent possible.
