Hart Middle School Counseling

Hart School Counseling

Welcome to Hart Middle School's Counseling Department

Counselors provide academic, social/emotional, and college and career development support to the entire Hart Middle School community. If at anytime you need assistance in these areas, please reach out to the counseling team. This site is filled with information and resources for students, parents/guardians, families, and staff to help students in all areas of life. Students may fill out the "Request to See a Counselor" form available in the Counseling Office. When your counselor is available, they will send out a "counseling pass" to the student to come and speak with them about their questions or concerns.

Have a wonderful and successful school year!!

2026-27 Scheduling Information

Student Schedules :

Welcome Back Students and Families! Student Schedules are now available on StudentVUE and ParentVUE in Synergy. If there is an error in your student’s schedule, please complete this SCHEDULE CORRECTION FORM. Counselors will only process requests from the schedule correction form. Continue to check StudentVUE and ParentVUE for any schedule changes.

THE SCHEDULE CORRECTION FORM DEADLINE IS FRIDAY, AUGUST 21 AT 3PM

This is only for CORRECTIONS or if there is an ERROR in your schedule.

Please know that this may change your schedule completely- please only fill out the form if you are okay with your schedules and teachers changing.

Note:

- Space is very limited in all classes.

- We are unable to accommodate teacher preference or lunch preference requests

- Do not assume your request will be approved. The counselors will do our best to accommodate schedule change requests due to space and availability.

- If the schedule change is made, you will be able to see it reflected in the student's schedule on StudentVUE and ParentVUE.

- Continue to attend your classes on your schedule (and do your work) until you see a change.

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding. We look forward to a fantastic 2026-2027 school year!
