The goal of the School of Science and Technology counseling services is to provide students with the opportunity to address a variety of issues which may serve as barriers to achieving their maximum potential. This allows your student to maintain or increase his/her focus in the classroom setting, while the school is able to challenge all students to achieve at their highest level and provide them with the necessary knowledge and skills to become a leader in the world.

Counseling services are provided during regular school hours and consist of individual and/or group counseling. If your student participates in counseling activities, he/she will be seen according to the specific need, generally a weekly or biweekly for up to 4-6 weeks.
