HOW WE HELP
Our counsellors are available to assist students and their families in the following ways:
- Help with personal concerns
- Community referrals for mental health support
- Academic support, including study skills
- Course selection, course planning, course changes
- Graduation requirements – ‘Grad Check'
- Post-secondary information
- Scholarship information
On the Counselling website there is a link to each member of the Counselling and Career Team. Students and parents are invited to book appointments here.
Students (or parents) may also make appointments to see a counsellor at the Counselling Centre or through the main office. Parents are also welcome to phone or email counsellors if they have any questions or concerns. Grade 9-12 students are encouraged to make appointments, as necessary, with their counsellor to ensure their program will allow for graduation and pursuit of their passions.
