LHS School Counseling

The guidance and counseling program is comprehensive in nature, reflecting standards established by the American School Counselors Association. Components of this program include classroom guidance, individual planning sessions, particularly regarding career and educational plans, and responsive services such as dealing with personal situations on a short-term basis, and assisting with referrals to other professionals. While students are assigned to counselors by name, their participation in the structured classroom and group experiences ensures exposure to each member of the counseling team. Transcript requests are processed in the main counseling office, and individual appointments may be made in the house offices.
