Who are the College & Career Counselors?

What is College Counseling?

The EHS College Centers host visits, workshops, and presentations from college admissions counselors, military recruiters, and apprenticeship coordinators .  We also provide one on one or group counseling on the college admissions process, resume writing, essay revisions, scholarship searches and college list creation. Both College Centers have a variety of admissions resources available as well. College, military and career programs are held throughout the year to assist students and families with their post secondary plans.  The school counseling department offers many workshops throughout the year to assist students and families with this planning process beginning in the students' freshman year.
