How Can Students Be Seen By The Counselor
A student can be referred to see the counselor by a teacher, fellow student, administrator, parent, faculty member or a student can refer him/herself. Once a referral is made, a counseling permission slip is sent home to be signed by a parent or guardian. All completed forms should be returned to your child's school counselor.
