Need to make an appointment with your counselor?

Due to COVID 19 safety concerns, we are implementing new procedures for making an appointment with your counselor. All counselors will be using an online scheduler called Calendly to schedule their appointments this year. This will replace the use of paper passes. Since the majority of students are only in school every other day, we feel it is important to maximize students' time in the classroom, while also supporting the health and safety of our students and staff. Therefore, we encourage most appointments to be scheduled on the days students are at home via either telephone or Google Meet. You may also reach out to your counselor via email to request a time to speak with them. If there is an emergency situation or your have an urgent or time-sensitive concern, please call the office directly and speak with someone. Here is a listing of the appointment links for each counselor:
