Who is the Modern Counselor?
Counselors are dedicated to assure that all students develop skills
in the areas of;
- self knowledge,
- interpersonal relationships,
- educational and occupational exploration,
- career planning,
- post secondary education planning,
- scholarship and financial aid advisement.
Counselors have been trained to provide support to students in meeting
and overcoming personal issues such as;
- grief,
- stress,
- conflict resolution as well as crisis intervention.
Counselors assist students in developing a plan for their education and
future career. The modern counselor is nothing like the "career counselor" of years past.
Professional Consultation: Counselors provide professional input to resolve
school wide or staff problems, assist in in-service training, address personal or school-related issues, and facilitate professional
growth.
