| Intro
to Guidance:
Welcome to the Holy Redeemer Catholic School Counseling
and Guidance Program. The counseling program at HRCS
is designed to assist you and your child in making the
most of his/her educational experience. As your school’s
counselor, I am committed to providing an environment
that promotes student self-worth, one in which the unique
social, emotional, and intellectual needs of all students
are addressed.
I
subscribe to the following philosophy regarding counseling
and my work with students:
- Counseling
is the process of helping people by assisting them
in making decisions and changing behavior.
- School
counselors take a holistic approach to education by
working with students, their families, school staff
and members of the community.
- School
counseling programs promote school success through
a focus on academic needs, prevention and intervention
activities, advocacy, social/emotional development
and career exploration.
