What is School Counseling?
The Guidance Department at Pinkerton Academy provides
personalized services to nearly 3500 students every year. These services are an essential part of the
educational program focusing on customizing the benefits of life at Pinkerton
Academy for each student. The guidance
program focuses on helping students make appropriate academic choices to
develop and look forward to a post-high school plan. Guidance counselors are also a source of referral to outside
agencies for those students who require personal and/or mental health
counseling services. The
social-emotional issues that are part and parcel to student life at this
developmental stage are dealt with through various support groups and
educational presentations.
Thus, guidance and counseling services address three major
domains in an adolescent's life: Educational Development, Career Development
and Personal and Social Development. An
experienced and certified staff with a broad range of expertise and specialties
delivers a full spectrum of services to our students.
The Guidance Department staff is available to students throughout
the school day; however, to assure counselor availability and full attention,
each student is encouraged to make an appointment with his/her counselor.
Appointments can be made by completing a "Request for Guidance
Appointment" form during operating hours (6:30 a.m. to
3:30 p.m.). These forms are also available in each
homeroom. This practice also helps students
develop emerging adult behavior that is responsible and self-managing.
NOTE: Guidance counselors do not provide mental health services. All of our counselors have the necessary skills and training to help students with their emotional needs related to their development and education. Our counselors will refer students to appropriate outside agencies for those services that are beyond the scope of school counseling.
