Meeting the Counselor:
Scholars are welcome to either email their Counselor to schedule an appointment or they can come in and sign up on the iPad located in the Counseling Office, preferably before school, after school, or during lunch. Our goal is for students to get to their classes in a timely manner.
If your Scholar’s Counselor is available, they will see them at that time. If they can not see them at that moment, they will send a pass for the student to be seen. If it is an emergency situation, our scholar will be seen immediately.

It is imperative to recognize that your high school years are an important transition from youth to adulthood. It is a time to explore your interests while you prepare for challenges of post secondary, education, vocational opportunities, and all the other complex responsibilities of the adult world.
The goal of this Guidance Office is to assist students in gaining self-understanding as a basis for setting constructive life goals which are consistent with one’s abilities, interests, and aptitudes. By stretching your limits now, more opportunities will await you in the future.
