counseling staff
School Counselors are here to help students with academic, career and social emotional needs. When students need help in any of these areas we will collaborate with parents, teachers, and administration. School Counselors are available during the regular scheduled school day via phone, email, and video conference. You may make an appointment with a school counselor using the counselor’s Calendly link. Counselors can assist with the following:
Academic: Schedule Changes, Enrollment, Four Year Academic Plan, Credit Recovery, Alternative High School Options
College and Career: Scholarships, FAFSA Assistance, College Visits, Post Secondary Day, Dual Credit Enrollment, ACT/PSAT Coordinator
Social Emotional: Individual Counseling, Small Groups, SOS-Signs of Suicide
