School Counseling Team
School Counselors play a critical role in a students academic and social/emotional journey throughout their high school career. We encourage students to talk with their school counselor about their 4 year plan and if an Extended Learning Opportunity could potentially enhance their high school experience. Students should have a conversation with their counselor first to ensure that an ELO aligns with their longterm goals and will fit into their academic schedule. ELOs can take place during the school day or after school so it's important to work with your counselor at the beginning stages of planning for your ELO. School Counselors must sign-off on all ELO requests.
Faculty Advisors play an integral role in all Extended Learning Opportunities(ELOs). They serve as a mentor for students and help to guide students in their learning and support them through reflective practices. Faculty Advisors are responsible for identifying the competencies that will be addressed and assessed through each unique ELO. They will schedule regular check-ins with the student and support the student as they work to complete their ELO Capstone Project. Faculty volunteer to serve as a faculty advisor to support students interested in extending their learning outside of the traditional classroom.
