Northmont High School Counselors
The Guidance Office is located in Wing 1 through Door 1. Counseling services may include personal counseling, career planning, academic concerns and post-high school planning.
Counselors are available during regular school hours and usually after school by appointment. To see your counselor, make an appointment by reaching out by email. Many times you will be able to drop in between classes or during your lunch period or study hall. From time to time, you will be called to the guidance office to see if your counselor may be of assistance to you. Each counselor meets with his or her students each year. The Guidance Department attempts to create an open door atmosphere for both students and faculty.
