The Counseling Department works with students to address academic, social, emotional, spiritual, and college/career concerns.
Student & Family Support
Our counselors, with their proactive approach, are always ready to meet students individually to work through personal struggles, guide students and parents toward a successful four-year academic plan, present lessons in the classroom, or host parent education events. They not only provide short-term counseling to students in need but also offer referrals to outside agencies and individuals who can provide more extensive support.
Utilizing a Christ-centered, comprehensive approach to school counseling, the department is committed to helping students recognize their God-given uniqueness and understand and develop the gifts that He has given them.
