HIGH SCHOOL COUNSELORS:

Has your school been hit with budget cuts?

Does the counseling department need to find innovative ways to do more with less?

Many counseling departments across the country have been down-sized or given more responsibilities as schools cope with fewer resources. We recognize that there is a growing need to help high schools provide vital college planning information to students. Many counselors, teachers, parent or student volunteers are asked to present college admissisons concepts to individual students as well as small groups or entire classrooms.

The time has come for an innovative approach that allows high schools flexibility in how they provide this service to their students. The concept of College Counseling as Curriculum is a concept whose time has come!

It doesn't mean that students won't still need one-on-one assistance, but if each student were educated and had organizational tools in order prior to walking in your office, hmmmmm - what would that be like?
