My name is Heather Johnson and I am the School Counselor. This is my 11th year at Meridian High School. I spent 4 years in the Decatur Public School District working with K-8 students. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in History from Eastern Illinois University and a Master’s Degree in School Counseling from the University of Illinois Springfield. My husband is the Principal at Mt. Zion High School and my 2 daughters attend Meridian. 

     The Counseling Department provides six types of services: academic advisement for high school classes, career counseling, post-secondary educational advisement for institutional choice and financial aid, interpretation of test scores, academic assistance/monitoring, and personal counseling.
