The guidance department at Saint Mary's Jr/Sr High School is committed to helping students reach their full scholastic and personal potential. To this end, the counselor provides academic support, college/career counseling and social / emotional guidance. The services offered by Guidance are many and diverse, but our foremost concern is to be available to students. Throughout the school year, students will meet with their counselor individually. Additionally, the guidance counselor is the link between parents, teachers, and students. Parents are encouraged to communicate their questions and concerns regarding their child's well-being and success with the school counselor. Likewise, students are welcome to schedule additional appointments with the school counselor as needed.
