Social Work Corner

The Copper Canyon High School guidance team is dedicated to making sure our students have the resources that they need to be successful academically on our campus! To assist with personal and social concerns, we have a certified school social worker with diverse skills, Ms. Rachelle Ernster. School social workers seek to ensure equitable education opportunities; ensure that students are mentally, physically, and emotionally present in the classroom; and promote respect and dignity for all students. Ms. Ernster provides support to students through individual support, group counseling, social/emotional skill education, crisis intervention, and parent support. Ms. Ernster can assist students and families in linking to community resources that may include financial, food, clothing, housing, medical and dental care, and mental health treatment. Contact Ms. Ernster by email or at 623-478-4827.
