The mission of the Doddridge County Middle School Counseling Program is to provide a data-driven, comprehensive, developmentally appropriate program that prioritizes student success, meets the personal, social, and emotional needs of students, and ensure students have access to resources in preparing for their future by encouraging lifelong learning, fostering positive relationships, and working to close the educational gaps our students experience. We strive to provide a multiculturally competent, welcoming environment to students that promotes student well-being and provides the tools needed for student’s success through collaborative efforts of the student, school, home, and community.

Doddridge County Middle School students will become contributing members of society, being engaged, driven, and passionate for the journey ahead. They will exude leadership, excellence, and empowerment. Our students will work to demonstrate proficiency in all areas of our comprehensive program: academics, personal/social engagement, and emotional and mental development.
