Yarbrough Elementary School

Counselor

Counselor

  • Hi! My name is Caitlin Stanford,

    I am the school counselor at Yarbrough Elementary. Before becoming a school counselor, I spent many years as an elementary classroom teacher. My experience in the classroom gave me a strong understanding of the academic, social, and emotional needs of elementary-aged students, and I love being able to continue supporting students in a different role.

    As the school counselor, I work with students through whole-group classroom lessons, small groups, and individual support. In whole-group lessons, we explore topics such as study skills, friendships, bullying prevention, feelings and emotional regulation, conflict resolution, goal setting, peer pressure, and making positive choices.

    In small groups, students have the opportunity to build skills in areas such as emotional regulation, managing worries, social skills, self-control, friendship skills, and coping with grief or other life changes.

    I believe that working together as a school and family helps our students grow and succeed. Please feel free to email me at cbstanford@auburnschools.org or call Yarbrough Elementary at 334-887-1970 with any questions or concerns about your child.

    I look forward to supporting our students and partnering with families throughout the school year!
