The process of selecting individual courses and preparing for a challenging program of studies is an important task for every high school student. The Guidance Department is committed to helping students select meaningful courses for graduation and to assist in the transition from high school to employment or post secondary education.

Individual guidance and consultation is provided to prepare students for their transition to high school. In addition, an orientation is provided for parents of eighth grade students to offer transitional services to the high school.

Highlights include: vocational training opportunities, technology preparation, weighted courses, and college credit courses. Individual consultations are available to assist in course selection. Other services include, but are not limited to:
