FHS Counseling Program
Description
School counselors foster
excellence by helping all students to achieve their potential. Counselors
promote excellence through their work in four program areas: individual
planning, counseling curriculum, responsive services and individual counseling,
and system support.
School counselors assist
students in developing realistic education and career plans based on a clear
understanding of themselves, their needs, interests, skills, and the realities
and possibilities of the worlds of education and work. Through the Counseling
Center, students can draw on various resources, including frequent visits by
college representatives, a library of college guides, scholarship information,
financial aid, and standardized testing. Programs sponsored by the Counseling
Center include Williamson County College Fair, Financial Aid Night, Career Day,
Awards Night, Fall Senior Parent Night, College Forum for Juniors, and Eighth
Grade Parent Night.
