Guidance

The guidance department is the clearinghouse for questions relating to subject choice and program planning.

An important task of the counselors is to help students interpret course offerings in view of their own educational and career vocation plans. They provide source materials and information concerning career opportunities and training beyond high school. Individual scheduling conferences are held with all students. Parents are always encouraged to attend.

Individual schedules must be completed for all students in grades 9-12. Further counseling is necessary in case of conflicts in subject choice and in the event of course failure. Failing students may be advised to attend summer school, to repeat subjects next term, or to change their programs. Students in this category should contact the guidance office as soon as their status is known.

Appointments to discuss course changes may be made throughout the summer.
