What Would I See My Counselor For?

Course Planning: planning class schedule;

graduation requirements; electives.

Future Planning: 4 year Plan; PostSecondary planning.
Concerns: academic issues or struggles;
personal issues; college or career issues.

Get Off to a GREAT Start!

Take your sophomore grades seriously; they may be the

most important grades considered in the admissions

process. Colleges are looking for trends, consistency, etc.
STUDY HARD. Your grades show up on your transcript
(permanent record).
Build relationships with your teachers. It will take you to
the next level of success!

Get Involved & Stay Involved

Get involved in at least ONE

extra-curricular activity. You

never know where your
involvement will take you!
Take advantage of
Collaborative Wednesday. This
is a great time to work with
other students and teachers to
better yourself. You get out
what you put in.
