Guidance Department

We believe every student deserves the opportunity to achieve his or her potential. Every student has the capacity to learn, and the right to develop a positive self-image.

Students learn best when encouraged, directed, and focused through sound instruction, guidance and counseling. School counselors strive to provide all students with the academic, psychological and interpersonal skills necessary to succeed in school and in life.

Please call or email your child’s counselor if you have any questions or need to set up a parent-team conference. All the counselors “travel” with their students. The counselors start with the students as sixth graders and stay with them throughout their middle school years. By staying with the students all three years, the counselors have a better opportunity to get to know the students and their concerns. We look forward to working with you and your child.
