The counselors in the North Smithfield School District are committed to the health and well being of every student.  Each student has access to numerous resources for Social and Personal growth and development including their counselor, a school social worker, and a school psychologist.  As part of their Individual Learning Plan (ILP), each student has the ability to track their social and emotional plans from grade 6-12 and plan for the future.  The ILP is online at waytogori.org.  A Student's Advisor and Counselor will each review the ILP with every student on an annual basis.
