We ensure equitable access to the resources students need to reach their full potential academically, prepare for future college and career opportunities, and develop the skills needed for success in high school and beyond.
Our Program: Our National Model-aligned program delivers support through:
- School Counseling Curriculum: Proactive classroom lessons and group activities.
- Individual Student Planning: Personalized advisement to help students reach their goals.
- Responsive Services: Support for immediate needs and crisis intervention.
- Indirect Services: Collaboration with families, teachers, and the community to support student success.
Our Team: Every Lancer is assigned a dedicated Professional School Counselor. Our team members hold Master’s degrees and are specialists in academic and behavioral interventions, committed to the growth and well-being of every student.
