Counseling Center
Glacier’s Counseling Team Vision:
The vision of Glacier’s Comprehensive School Counseling Program is to foster an inclusive, diverse, and anti-racist environment and promote equity. To ensure all students have access to an equitable learning environment, we aim to provide resources supporting students' academic, career, and social-emotional development.
Glacier’s Counseling Team Mission:
The mission of Glacier’s Comprehensive School Counseling Program is to identify students' strengths and interests while supporting them through self-exploration, course planning, scheduling, and general study skills. Moreover, we strive to provide a safe space for students to share their personal experiences and develop social-emotional skills. We acknowledge that all students have different needs and thus need different types of support. We aim to provide an environment that will promote student self-efficacy and self-assurance by collaborating with students, school staff, families and other community members.
