Mountaineer Middle has two, full-time counselors:  Ms. _and Mr. Ziems who are happy to work with students.  Students, teachers, and parents may complete this referral form to speak with our counselors.  Please keep in mind that this referral form is not for emergencies. 

Those in need of immediate assistance at school should speak to a teacher, ask to see a counselor, and/or contact a trusted adult.  In case of an emergency outside of school,  students should try one or more of the following suggestions:  speak with an adult, dial 9-1-1, or call/text a 24-hour crisis line.  Here are specific sites and numbers to contact for emergency help:
