Mission Statement:  To develop and implement a comprehensive school counseling program that successfully promotes and builds a community for all students to be successful academically, socially, behaviorally, & in their extra curricular pursuits.  This will occur through the implementation of research based and data driven school wide guidance lessons, multiple small groups, and individual preventative and responsive counseling sessions.  Ultimately, we want to create a community of continuous development that promotes responsible and lifelong learners who possess a growth mindset.
