Counseling

Our district Comprehensive School Counseling Program provides services to all students in the following areas to support student development and academic excellence:

GUIDANCE CURRICULUM

Guidance curriculum is delivered in collaboration with school counselors and campus staff to serve all students through developmentally appropriate lessons and activities for various sized groups of students. 

INDIVIDUAL PLANNING

School counselors guide, monitor, and assist students and their families to meet their educational, career, personal, social and post secondary goals. Through a variety of resources, individual planning or small focus groups are used to assist with the implementation of personalized planning.

RESPONSIVE SERVICES

Responsive services may be preventive, remedial, or crisis in nature. School counselors support students and respond effectively to offer services to address their immediate needs through individual counseling, small group, consultation, or a referral to services outside the school or district.

SYSTEM SUPPORT

System Support is the foundation of the comprehensive school counseling program. This includes program management as well as assessing student and campus data to identify and coordinate resources and activities on campus that indirectly benefit students. School counselors assess and ensure the delivery of a high quality school counseling program.
 

College, career, and military life will offer your student countless opportunities for their future.

Here are some simple things you can do to help your student prepare for a bright future.

Start early

No matter how young your student is, it is never too early to begin planning for the future and talking with your student about it.

Be clear

Communicate your expectations to your student about his or her behavior and performance in school.

Talk

Have frequent conversations with your student about schoolwork, goals and the importance of education.

Encourage

Motivate your student to try new activities, volunteer in the community and succeed in school. Studies have shown that students involved in school activities enjoy school more and do better academically. Extra activities at school help students make new friends, gain confidence and new skills and have fun!
