Counseling Staff
Welcome to the Western High School Counseling Department 2022-2023.
The Western High School Counseling Department is dedicated to assisting students in reaching their future goals. We strive to assist students on their path toward high school graduation, entrance into college and continuing with their career choice. School counselors meet with students on a regular basis to complete four year plans, plan future class schedules, and to discuss their personal and academic needs.
Please encourage your student to see their counselor for any academic, college & career, or social emotional support.
