Dear Parents,

All students will be assigned to their counselor alphabetically for the 2006-2007 school year and will remain with that counselor while in the middle school. The reason for this change is so that counselors will have more periods during the school day to meet with students without taking them out of any of their academic or elective courses. With a 9 period day and each grade level having an enrichment and advisory period each student will have greater access to their counselor during those periods. Counselors will meet with students on an individual as well as small group basis and look forward to greater contact time over the course of the school year.
