Student Services

  • The Student Support Services Department consists of counselors, social workers, nurses, attendance liaisons, and school-based mental health counselors. The purpose of this department, as the name suggests, is to support students in their endeavor to successfully complete their education.  This dedicated group of professionals strives to assist students in removing any barriers to their education, whether they may be academic, social, medical, or emotional.  Each school has access to a nurse, social worker, school counselor, school-based mental health counselor, and attendance liaison.  Please contact your child's school or the Executive Director of Student Support Services if you or your child need any assistance.  We are here to help!
