All students are valued for their uniqueness we respect and encourage personal development, growth and confidence, to allow for cultural diversity.
Data is used to initiate and develop a comprehensive School Counseling Program in accordance with ASCA standards that provide and encourage academic achievement, personal growth and career exploration.
