Guidance and Counseling

Guidance and Counseling services at the Opportunity Center are available to every student.  The goal of the program is to provide individual and/or group counseling as needed.  The same standardized testing available on the home campuses is also utilized at the Opportunity Center.

Areas addressed include academic concerns, self-esteem, interpersonal relationships, decision making, mediation and personal concerns.  Questionnaires are sometimes utilized as counseling tools and are kept in confidential files.  Services available include: personal counseling, academic counseling, testing and interpretation, vocational information, career and scholarship information, parent assistance, follow-up student services, resource person for outside agencies, and any other personal counseling as needed.

The counseling staff welcomes the opportunity to meet with parents in order to discuss their child's goals and please feel free to contact the counseling staff at 428-2900 in order to arrange a conference.  In addition to working with the students, the counseling staff will be glad to provide parents and families with information and further counseling services.
