Counselors' Role in the Upper School

We hold a strong belief and confidence in the potential and promise of each student. Because this stage of adolescence can be challenging, unpredictable and yes, wonderful, we strive to assist and support all who are involved in the formation of educated, healthy and happy young adults. To do this effectively, we work with a variety of constituencies to ensure that students receive the type of support and guidance they need.

  • We interact with individual students on their personal, social and emotional issues.
  • We work collaboratively with families, faculty, deans, and administration.
  • We assist in initiating and facilitating staffings and formulating action plans.
  • We explore current research and literature on issues and share findings with parent discussion groups and through staff development activities.
  • We identify and build relationships with outside community resources.
