Welcome to the Counseling Center
Below you will find links to colleges, universities, information on financial aid, scholarships, and some relevant government sites, all of which should help answer any questions about scholarships and financial aid.
May is National Mental Health Awareness month. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health issues, please do not hesitate to contact me. Make an appointment, or simply stop by. As a school counselor, the mental health of my students and their families is as important as career planning and academics. I look forward to speaking with you.
