Guidance and Counseling Services

The Guidance Program is an integral part of the school. The program is based on the developmental needs of all students and consists of support services to help students understand their academic, social and emotional development and become knowledgeable about educational, vocational and career opportunities. Students will be helped to develop decision making skills and to set goals and plan for their futures. More intensive individual and group counseling is provided for those students who experience difficulties in meeting school expectations or in interpersonal relationships.

A major objective of the Guidance Department is to enable each student to realize his or her potential to lead a fulfilling and useful life.
