How is this done?

By emphasizing attainable objectives and expected student competencies in such areas as the following:

• Developing self-knowledge
• Establishing and implementing educational plans
  
• Involving parents in decision making planning
  
• Achieving academic proficiency standards
  
• Exploring educational and occupational options
  
• Planning for future careers
  
• Forming realistic perceptions of the world of work
  
• Developing effective personal and social skills
  
• Improving interpersonal skills
  

 The focus of a successful Counseling Program should be preventive rather than remedial, but would include provisions for resolving recurrent problems.

 With community support I know we can take our children to the next step in their development.
