The purpose of the School Counseling Program is to facilitate the positive development of each student’s unique learning, emotional, social, and physical characteristics. Services are directed toward student growth in academic, personal/social and career development. School counselors work toward mitigating barriers for students as it relates to their academic success and decreasing the achievement gap.

School counselors are charged with answering the question "How are students different as a result of school counseling programs, interventions, and service delivery?"  School counselors deliver a comprehensive school counseling program by adhering to the following North Carolina Professional School Counseling Standards.

Standard 1: Demonstrate leadership, advocacy and collaboration.

Standard 2: Promote A Respectful Environment for A Diverse Population of Students

Standard 3: Understand and Facilitate the Implementation of a Comprehensive School Counseling Program

Standard 4: Promote Learning For All Students

Standard 5: Actively Reflect on Their Practice

Students are assigned to school counselors by their last name, please see the information in the right-hand column to find your child's counselor.
