The Guidance Office 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 Guidance Office 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 Guidance 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 guidance 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.
