GHS COUNSELING WEBPAGE

Directory for contact information and availability.   
 

Services Offered By Our School Counselors:

 
Individual Student Planning: School counselors work with 9-12 students to identify short- and long-term academic, personal-social, and college and career goals. Utilizing these goals, counselors help students and families identify current and future courses of study, possible barriers to success, and solutions. In this way, school counselors and students are able to plan for goal-attainment while also reinforcing problem-solving and critical thinking skills.
 
Responsive Services: School counselors are able to provide assistance to students and schools in moments of need through individual and group or classroom lessons. By building relationships with students, teachers, administrators, parents, and community members, counselors are quickly able to respond to one child or an entire school with resources and support.
 
Consultation: The school counselor is available to parents, teachers, and other educational professionals to discuss student concerns and develop proactive plans for student achievement. School counselors are knowledgeable about the educational process; child and adolescent development; and local, state, and national resources. Through this collaboration and their awareness of the "whole" child, school counselors are able to build bridges to academic success.
Today's school counselors are vital members of the education team. They help all students in the areas of academic achievement, social/emotional development and college/career development, ensuring today's students become the productive, well-adjusted adults of tomorrow.
