Counseling

Counselors work collaboratively with students, parents
and teachers to provide academic, social-emotional and college counseling.

 SMCHS Provides Comprehensive Support

Students will partner with both a school counselor and college counselor during their time at SMCHS. What makes the support students receive even more robust is the partnership counseling has with the school’s wellness program. This three-prong approach to student support places mental health and wellness at the forefront with a deeper emphasis on both academic success in the underclassmen years and college preparation before graduation.
