What can you get by filing a FAFSA?
7:00 am to 3:30 pm. To schedule an appointment with a counselor, please call Ruthie at 323-5475. Counselors will be in departmental meetings every Tuesday from 8:45 until 9:30 am to meet as a Professional Learning Community.
Thank you for being cooperative with the scheduling process this fall. Counselors worked diligently to keep class sizes balanced and at a minimal number. Students should now be appropriately placed in their classes.
The counselors would like to remind parents and students that we are here to advocate for the students and their needs. We would like to encourage parents to:
- contact the individual teachers first with concerns about assignments, grades or student progress.
- ask teachers for specific feedback and to offer specific recommendations/suggestions for improving academic achievement in their classes.
- contact counselors if grade concerns are not resolved.
- seek additional help from teachers before or after school...consult teachers to make appointments
- utilize the free "drop-in" tutoring service provided by NHS.
- contact counselors if/when questions arise.
