The Floresville Elementary counselors will be starting small group guidance sessions soon.  Some of the goals of the groups are to enhance self-esteem and  to increase communication and problem-solving skills.  These groups meet once a week for approximately 30 minutes.  At present, the groups are created on a teacher or student/family request, and all groups are voluntary.  Should you have questions, feel free to contact us at 830-393-5328 ext. 5.
