You Matter. You Belong.
Every student matters, and every day counts. Being present helps students learn, grow, build relationships, and stay connected to their school community. We also understand that there are times when students cannot be at school, and during those times, their well-being comes first. Our team is here to support every student every step of the way.
- Support the emotional well-being of all students.
- Guide students in developing future goals and exploring their passions, understanding that these goals may evolve.
- Promote self-awareness by helping students understand their interests, strengths, abilities, and challenges.
- Advise students on academic and extracurricular opportunities that align with their strengths and future college and career goals.
- Assist with transitions between grade levels and buildings while supporting academic, social, and personal needs.
- Help students build interpersonal skills and become responsible, contributing members of their community.
- Communicate with parents and teachers regarding student progress and support.
