Elementary Counseling

Welcome to the Yankton School District's Elementary School Counseling page. As school counselors, we work with students, parents, teachers, and staff to ensure that each student's academic, social/emotional, and career needs are being met. School counselors provide individual, group, and classroom counseling.
