The counseling office is a place to “vent” concerns, procure assistance in problem-solving, and to “think out loud” when you need to. All schedule changes must be made through the counselor, final approval will be made by the principal. Arrangements will be made whereby all students will have the opportunity to meet with and discuss future educational and occupational plans with the counselor throughout the year.
COUNSELING AND CRISIS INTERVENTION SOURCES: Students who desire information or counseling for alcohol abuse, drug abuse or personal problems are encouraged to meet with the school counselor.
