School Counselors

School Counselors

School Counselors support the emotional, social, and academic well-being of each student. They help students manage challenges, guide students in setting goals, improve study habits, and support career planning. School Counselors work with teachers and parents to ensure all students get the support they need. School Counselors can connect students and families with resources within the School District and the community.

School counselors are the “go to” resource for ensuring students feel safe, supported, and prepared for success in school and beyond.

How do I make an appointment?

  • Students wanting to see a School Counselor should schedule an appointment with the Student Services Office.
  • Parents wanting to schedule an appointment should contact the Student Services Office at 715.377.3803
