COUNSELING
The Counseling Program is an integral component of the total Saint Joseph High School educational program. The primary goal of the counseling program is to promote and enhance student learning. The Comprehensive Guidance Program at Saint Joseph High School serves all students, grades nine through twelve, using a proactive and preventative approach. Counseling assists students in acquiring and using life-long learning skills in a developmental systematic nature. The content of the counseling program focuses on three interrelated areas: Academic Development, College Career Development and Personal Social-Spiritual Development.
The Comprehensive Guidance Program, under the direction of the Assistant Principal of Counseling Services, is delivered by a certificated school counselor, academic/college career advisors, certificated teachers, spiritual ministers and deans of students. The primary delivery methods are group presentations, individual planning, responsive services and consultation. The Counseling Department has been engaged in the ongoing process of implementing the National Standards for School Counseling Programs. These standards provide a framework that ensures that guidance programs are comprehensive in design and delivered in a systematic fashion for all students.
