WORKING WITH YOUR SCHOOL COUNSELOR
Working with your counselor is vitally important as your student transitions into high school. For some this transition is
a smooth one but others come across a few bumps as they try to navigate the road to success in high school. This is why
we are here- to assist! There are several questions you may have that the counselor may be able to help you with-
- Which classes should my student be taking?
- What resources are available for my student to explore his/her career interests?
- What can my student do now to get ready for college?
- What programs are available to enhance my student's education?
- What strategies/resources can my student use to be successful in his/her classes?
- My student is having problems with his/her friends. Can the counselor help?
- My student is having emotional problems. What types of resources are available?
- My student has failed courses how can he/she get back on track?
As your counselors we are responsible for assisting with the personal academic, career/college, and social-emotional development of your student. We as a team we will accomplish this by carrying out a comprehensive counseling plan aimed at meeting the needs of all students. Below you can find a list of things we will accomplish this academic school year:
