Counseling
Mrs. Farner, Mrs. Turner, and Mrs. Smith, your 8th grade counselors, have posted a helpful video to walk you through your High School Academic and Career Plans. The video will go over high school graduation requirements and will tell you how to access your personal academic career plan. Please access the video here or on the RMS School Counseling Canvas page. You can access the powerpoint shown in the video here.
Although our school setting has changed for this school year, your school counselors are still here and working to support our students' social/emotional growth, academic achievement, and career planning. Although we can't meet with students and parents in person, we are still available by phone and email. In addition, we have invited all students to join our canvas page where we can communicate with students through messages and video conferences. If a student has not accepted the invitation to join, they may join here. Parents can sign up to observe their child's Canvas by following these instructions. If you would like to set up a time to meet a counselor through video conference, please contact your school counselor.
