The
department includes two middle school counselors, two high school
counselors,
one special education counselor, and one school psychologist. These are
experienced, caring, dedicated individuals devoted to their
professions. Their
knowledge of the students and their families in the community provides
them
with a unique understanding of student needs. They extend the same
level of
service to post-graduate students upon request. As attested by the
faculty and
students, there is an effective support service made available through
the
guidance department.
Due to
our proximity
to Canada, the guidance department has established an excellent
relationship
with the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa as well as many High Schools in Eastern
Ontario. Many children of diplomats as well as Canadian high school
students
receive assistance with regard to college placement, testing, and
general
information.
