The school counselors have been going into the freshman G block rotation classes to introduce ourselves, share more about our roles in the school, and present information about the high school and academic requirements. Please ask your student is they've met us yet!

The school counselors went into senior project classes beginning on Friday, September 17 to talk about senior year expectations, preparation for college applications, and to remind students to be scheduling appointments with their counselor.
