Seeing Your Counselor: Non-Emergency Situation
Students, if you need to speak to a Counselor and it is not an emergency (something you want to talk about and could be discussed within the next couple of days), please email your counselor to schedule a meeting.

Seeing Your Counselor: Emergency Situation
During school, if you are experiencing an emergency (you or someone you know is in danger or you have an urgent need that cannot wait), please come to Counseling or tell a teacher, school staff member, or trusted adult immediately.

Student Emergency Resources
School Counselors, School Social Workers, and Social/Emotional Support Specialists are here to assist students with counseling or mental health needs, as well as connect students and families to resources in our community (including mental health referrals for outpatient therapy). Please email your child's Counselor to inquire about any of these services or to request help.
