Classroom Guidance
Bedford County Public Schools considers Guidance and Counseling services essential components of our school programs, available to all students in Kindergarten through Grade 12. These programs support and enhance the schools’ instructional goals by providing children and youth developmentally appropriate activities, guidance, and counseling in areas of academics, career preparation, and personal/social concerns. The offerings at Boonsboro Elementary include the state and county mandated Character Counts Program
