Call your counselor for class schedule questions, graduation and A-G status, and personal issues. Students and parents can access their counselor by requesting an appointment and walk in availability before school, at lunch, and after school.Students are assigned to a counselor on an alphabetical basis. Except for slight adjustments each year in order to maintain a balance in the counselor-student ratio, a student may look forward to an unbroken relationship with the same counselor for four years.The range of a counselor's contacts with his or her counselees is all in-inclusive, extending from program changes to referrals to personal counseling. In conjuction with the parent and student, the major goals of the counseling program are to:1. Develop a 4-year plan, including options for CTE or dual enrollment2. Ensure completion of high school3. Prepare for post-graduation choices4. Prepare students for eligibility for entrance into the college/university of his or her choice5. Assist in the search for scholarships and financial aid6.

Once school begins in August, program changes will only be made by counselor recommendation or administrative necessity.
