What does a School Counselor do?

School counselors advocate and assist students as they prepare for life after high school. This includes setting up student schedules, academic support and accountability, ACT/SAT testing, scholarships, career planning and making sure our students are spiritually, academically, and emotionally healthy.

We also realize high school can be difficult academically, socially, and emotionally. There are a lot of expectations to succeed academically. While we want all our students to discover their full potential academically, we also want to support their social emotional health. One of the big advantages in working at a Catholic school is that as we support students academically and emotionally, we are able to do this in a Christ-centered environment!  We believe Christ is at the center of what we do every day! Our hope is each student will discover their full potential academically, socially, and most importantly, spiritually.
