Our student services team is here to support students and families through the high school years. High school counselors have an impact on student success by developing a comprehensive school counseling program and collaborating with school staff, parents, and the community to create a safe and respectful learning environment.
Our goal is to help students to achieve optimal personal growth, acquire positive social skills and values, set informed career goals, and realize their full academic potential to become productive, contributing members of the world community.
