  •  What now?

    The transition from middle school to high school can be a significant and sometimes challenging step for incoming freshmen. It's a time filled with excitement, uncertainty, and a sense of the unknown. School counselors play a pivotal role in guiding and supporting these young students as they navigate their way through this new academic and social landscape. During this school year, counselors will utilize DBT strategies and other resources to assist freshmen in making a successful transition to high school.

  • Who am I?

    Among the many pivotal stages in a student's academic life, the sophomore year stands out as a critical juncture for young individuals as they begin to explore their own interests, values, and ambitions. As students navigate the maze of academic and extracurricular opportunities, school counselors will serve as mentors and facilitators, helping sophomores embark on a voyage of self-discovery and chart a course towards a meaningful and fulfilling career. Fostering self-awareness will help lay the foundation for successful future career choices.
