Carroll High School Guidance

Eagle Guidance and Counseling Program

The purpose of the Guidance and Counseling Program is to support home and school efforts and to promote students' academic/educational, personal, and career development. It is an integral part of each school's total educational program. The program is designed to:

Foster positive attitudes toward school learning, and work
Improve academic achievement
Encourage personal responsibility
Foster respect for self and others

What Are the Major Responsibilities of the School Counselor?

Counseling both small groups of students and individual students with personal and academic concerns
Addressing needs of students in classroom guidance activities
Consulting with teachers, staff, and parents about meeting the developmental needs of all students
Referring students with severe problems to appropriate community resources after consultation with their parents
Coordination of PLAN testing, State Writing Assessments, PSAT, and the AHSGE
Assisting students with financial aid and scholarship resources; college, university and military information

How is a Student Referred to the School Counselor?

Students may be referred to the counselor by parents, teachers, administrators, peers, or they may self refer.

Students may come by the counseling offices between classes and complete a referral form. The counselor will then call the student out of class (preferably an elective) at an appropriate time.

Students with urgent needs may also make their requests known to their classroom teachers. The teacher can then complete a referral form for the counselor.

Parents & Students,

We are looking forward to a great year and want to be available to each of you in any way that we can. It is our desire this year to work closely with each of you to provide the very best programs and resources. We encourage input from you about your needs and ideas.

If we can be any help to you, please call us.

Sincerely,

Mr. Wes Andrews & Ms. Cecilia Brown

Secretary Mrs. Donita Peters
