Today’s young people are living in an exciting time, with an increasingly diverse and mobile society, new technologies, and expanding opportunities. The high school years are full of growth, promise, excitement, frustration, disappointment and hope. It is the time when students begin to discover what the future holds for them. To help ensure that they are prepared to become the next generation of parents, workers, leaders, and citizens, every student needs support, guidance, and opportunities during adolescence, a time of rapid growth and change. Adolescents face unique and diverse challenges, both personally and developmentally, that impact academic achievement. It is important that we find some means of helping our children to make sense of their present experiences and of finding personal meaning in what they are currently being taught in school. It is important that we help children to develop the values and attitudes, to learn and practice the decision-making skills which will enable them to function in a changing society.

School counselors are vital members of the education team. They help all students in the areas of academic achievement; personal/social development and career development, ensuring today's students become the productive, contributing member of the world community and well-adjusted adults of tomorrow.
