The Guidance Department's primary goal is to support the school's mission by providing ongoing help to the students. Counselors meet with students individually and in small group settings throughout the year. They provide academic support, schedule advisement and college counseling as well as personal counseling.
Group guidance is provided on all levels for the purpose of informing students about standardized testing, career counseling and the college process. Additionally, throughout the year the department organizes parent meetings for each grade level. These meetings are meant to promote parental involvement in their child's education. The department provides parents with test results for all ninth, tenth, and eleventh graders, as well as college and financial aid information for juniors and seniors.
As the student's advocate, the counselor is a liaison between parent, teachers and student. Parents are encouraged to initiate calls to their child's counselor should they have concerns about their child's adjustment to Fenwick or academic performance.
