Welcome to the Guidance Office

Our Upper School Guidance Office focuses on the educational, emotional, and behavioral needs of our students and offers a range of services to address these needs.

We provide both academic and emotional support and seek to help students take advantage of the wealth of curricular and extra-curricular opportunities available to them.

In particular, the guidance counselors work with students in a variety
of ways such as:

welcoming new families and easing the transition to our school
advising on course selection and scheduling of classes
helping students to meet graduation requirements
assisting with long range planning and awareness of a variety of program options (including, but not limited to, AP and IB courses)
providing guidance in cases of academic difficulties
assisting students with personal and interpersonal concerns
guiding students through the college application process
communicating regularly with their teachers and parents
consulting with teachers, the guidance committee and local professionals on specific student concerns

During each school year, meetings and workshops are organized for students and parents, and individual meetings are encouraged.

Please take your time to look through our website and remember to read the weekly Upper School newsletters for updates - back issues are posted on the right of this page.

Additionally, feel free to contact us at any time with questions or if we can help in any way. We are very much looking forward to meeting you all and working with you throughout the year.
