Guidance counseling is a free service provided at EHS that is designed to help students to be academically successful. Our goals are to help students attain academic success, discern and prepare for a career, maintain healthy lifestyles, and interact with others in positive ways. Our counseling department uses the following techniques to meet these needs: classroom activities, guidance groups, individual guidance, and district-wide events.

Counseling Services:

Classroom Activities: The classroom activities take place periodically throughout the year and cover a variety of topics within the domains of academic success, careers, and personal/social concerns.  Our primary focus this year will be college and career readiness.

Guidance Groups:  Guidance groups are employed to help students who have common needs work together to support each other and problem solve.  Participation in these groups will not occur without parent consent.

Individual Guidance: Individual guidance is available to students at almost any time by appointment, and our goal is to provide students with the support they need to be successful in school and the tools needed to eventually solve problems on their own.  

School-wide Activities:  Our primary school-wide activity is the career and college fair. School-wide events will be advertised in advance.

Questions or Concerns:

If you do not want your student to participate in the guidance counseling services available to all students, please let us know by phone or in writing. We look forward to working with you and your child this year!
