School Counselor
Welcome to the counseling office!
BELIEF
We believe that students are proactive, high-achieving learners, and the future leaders of the world. Through participation in rigorous curriculum and appropriate activities, supported by high-quality school counseling programs, all students will have the equal opportunity to reach their fullest potential, realize their personal growth, and be well prepared to meet the challenges and high expectations of the century.
GOAL
The school counselor will collaborate with teachers, administrators, school psychologists, Rainbow Room facilitators, social workers, parents, and other professionals to advocate for the equity and achievement of every student. The school counselor aims to build up a comprehensive school counseling program to promote all students’ social, emotional, and academic development as well as develop their college and career awareness.
