Developmental
Guidance is the
essential thrust
of the philosophy
for the
Guidance and
Counseling Department.
We
are striving
for a
program in
which guidance
and counseling is a part
of the
school’s
instructional program and
are actively
involved in the
educational, career,
personal
and social development
of all students.
With teachers
and counselors
working as
a team,
students are
assisted in
their maturation.
Appropriate career
planning and
life management activities are provided for the entire school population.
Crisis counseling is
also available,
but the
major goal
of a
high school program
is
to provide
preventative
programs that help
students develop the skills
to deal
with problems
before they arise.
Planning for the
future is
approached through
guidance activities and
the Student
Advisement Mentoring
Program. Small group and
individual guidance is strictly
voluntary. Parents who wish
to refuse
their student’s
participation in
guidance and
counseling activities should contact
the school’s
Guidance Department
for the
specific procedure.
Parents who have
specific requests
of the
Guidance
Department
should call
one of the counselors.
