Changes in Student Services
There are some important changes in student services this year that you should be aware of.
In order to create more time for students to meet individually with counsellors, Student Services will move to an email and appointment slip system and move away from the primarily “drop in” one of past years.
This intentional shift will allow time for Guidance Counsellors to initiate meetings with more students than they were able to do previously. Guidance Counsellors have the goal to meet with each student through the year. These meetings will be initiated by Student Services but can also be initiated by the student any time.
Students may reach Guidance Counsellors through:
- email via the website (by far the most effective method)
- appointment slip in mailbox available in Student Services
- drop in at lunch time only
Counsellor-initiated appointment slots will primarily be during Periods 4, 5 and after school. Lunch breaks will be reserved for “drop in” requests when Guidance Counsellors are available.

We look forward to meeting with you and your student this year!
