Every student enters our building with a unique background, set of skills, interests and needs. At KCI, we recognize that uniqueness and are committed to offering the appropriate support that matches each individual. Here are the key staff members that play a role in that support.

Guidance Counsellors:
Each student will be assigned a guidance counsellor based on the first letter of their last name (see the list below). This counsellor will support their students in a variety of areas (including course selections, post-secondary and career decision making, conflict resolution, etc.) and are often the best person to contact in any circumstance. If your guidance counsellor can't help you with something, they will know who can.
