School Counselors
The counseling department provides comprehensive services to students and families focusing on three pillars of support; Social / Emotional, Academic, College / Career.
- Social / Emotional: We will nurture the development of a student’s whole self by promoting and advocating for each student’s balanced health and well-being, teaching self-advocacy, and being best prepared to cope with the world around them.
- Academic: We will help identify academic strengths of students while continuing to promote, teach and nurture personal academic growth.
- College and Career: We will support each student in career exploration (interests and aptitudes), connections (with both alumni and community opportunities), and personal growth (individualized action steps toward measurable career goals). In collaboration with families, we will assist students in finding a right-fit college or post-secondary program that aligns to the student’s aptitudes, goals and values.
