School Counseling

LOCATION: The Counseling Office is in our main building, adjacent to our main office.

Every student at Westmoor is automatically assigned to a School Counselor by the student's last name to assist students with graduation planning, course selection, college and career advising, academic stress/concerns, and credit recovery

Additionally, our Wellness Counselors provide mental health and socioemotional support for all of our students through group sessions, individual counseling, and mediated meetings between students and staff. Lastly, our College and Career Advisor is responsible for preparing all students for post-high school life, through college and career fairs on campus, highlighting job opportunities, assisting students with college applications, and assisting families with applying for financial aid and scholarships.
