~Counselor's Corner~

9th Grade Parents and Students: We will meet with all freshmen THIS week to finish up scheduling. Please ask to see their blue scheduling worksheet and sign the paper for them to return to us when we meet. Please check out all of our scheduling information HERE.

The end of the semester is upon us! It is important for students to focus on passing all of their classes and getting the help they need if they are struggling in any class. Remember that counselors are here to meet with students and help create plans for missing assignments or low grades. We only have three weeks until the semester is over and grades are final. Please email gisselle.ramos@lmusd.org or nancy.gonzalez@lmusd.org for an appointment with your counselor.
