COUNSELORS ARE STILL AVAILABLE!

Our goal is to continue to provide school counseling and wellness check-ins for students and families despite schools being closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Learning and counseling services are still available for you even though we are not physically in the building. Our virtual office hours are 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. We are also available outside of office hours and will respond to you as soon as possible, usually within 24 hours. 

You may check in with us for your social emotional, academic, and college/career needs.  We remain committed to our students’ mental wellness and academic success.  We communicate regularly through our Google Classrooms.
You may e-mail your grade level counselor with any questions, comments, or concerns that you may have.  We will respond as soon as possible.
