| The
School Counseling and Admissions Department is located on
the first floor of the building, Room A-122. Counselors are
on hand to assist students with various school and personal
problems. A prime function of the counselors is to help students
begin a realistic appraisal of their abilities, achievements,
interests and values so that they will be better able to
make intelligent, personal, occupational, and educational
decisions. All students need to be aware of the alternatives
to and consequences of their decisions, and a counselor will
provide them an opportunity to assess these situations.
The School Counseling
and Admissions Department has a computerized career guidance
program. Here students will find information on careers,
colleges, financial aid and scholarship service, day care,
jobs, military careers, and national trade schools. The School
Counseling and Admissions Department maintains a library
of catalogs and vocational information for students' use.
These catalogs include those on vocational programs and two
and four year college brochures. All students are invited
to come to the School Counseling and Admissions office with
any questions or problems, and they are urged to make frequent
use of the many materials there.
Parents are urged
to make appointments with the counselor when questions or concerns
develop. The guidance secretary will make the necessary arrangements. |
