Our school contracts with Phoenix School Counseling for counseling services. Counselors are available 5 days a week, during regular school hours, to meet individually with students upon parent request and to provide classroom guidance sessions on any needed topic.

Our contract with Phoenix School Counseling also includes access to psychologist, Dr. Jules Nolan.* Dr. Nolan is available for individual meetings or phone calls with parents on any matter pertaining to children and parenting.
