Perceived Roles

I perceive that guidance counselor is very important in student success. Being in career tech allows me insight into the world of our school counselors. I know that they are heavily involved in scheduling. At the beginning of every school term, they spend countless grueling hours arranging student schedules and making sure students are on the right track for graduation. Many students look to their guidance counselor for personal guidance with friends, family and their teachers. Guidance counselors are responsible for testing in our building, students and teachers alike. Guidance counselors have many duties but are acknowledged the least in the school system. I look forward to interviewing my guidance counselor because counseling was once an interest and somewhat still is.
