Student Services at North Country Union High School is available to assist every student in fully developing potential, achieving goals, and becoming a well-adjusted citizen in our complex society.
Offering a comprehensive developmental guidance program is the primary function of Student Services. It is a continuing process through which the individual may achieve a better understanding of his/her ability, aptitude, and interests in order to make more meaningful decisions now and in the future.
Philosophy of the Student Services Department
The department plays an important role in the development of each individual student’s personal self-esteem and self-confidence. It is our philosophy that students need to take personal responsibility for themselves and society. It is our goal to address the student’s educational, vocational, personal, and social needs and encourage the maximum growth and potential of each student.
To improve the quality of life for students and the school, the department encourages students to discuss their personal difficulties, needs and plans with counselors. In all situations, we strive to assist students in developing their own strategies for managing their lives.
The Student Services department is a resource for students, parents, faculty, administration and the community in career and educational exploration, referral for services within as well as external to the school, and in many areas of operation of the school.
Social/emotional needs of students will be allowed with care and in confidence, except in situations where there is a threat of harm to self or others; or there is a concern about physical safety of the student. The Student Services department takes a holistic approach to each student, assisting where it can in all aspects of the student’s life, especially as they relate to academic success and excellence.
