With a comprehensive school counseling program, we can address the developmental needs of every student.

School counselors are leaders who collaborate & coordinate opportunities for growth academically, socially, and emotionally in every student, which in turn prepares them for future success in career and life.

The school counselors, administration, staff, School Counseling Advisory Council, parents/guardians, and community all play an integral part in planning, managing, delivering and evaluating the school counseling program. 

As part of a comprehensive school counseling program, data and research based programs are consistently used to guide program goals and the methods to achieve those goals. 

School counselors apply the ASCA ethical standards for school counselors in the ongoing efforts to provide a world-class, comprehensive school counseling program.
