The Valencia High School counseling department offers a comprehensive program that focuses on academic, career, and personal development. We meet with each student at various times during the school year to review progress toward graduation and reaching the post-high school goals. Although all counselors can help students and parents in any area, each counselor has a specific area of expertise that all students are encouraged to utilize. Each counselor also has an alphabetical group of students to monitor his / her success. Each counselor serves as a "Walk-In-Counselor" for five hours per week and is available to address the immediate needs of our students and parents. If a student wishes to meet with a counselor, we encourage him / her to complete a request for a counselor appointment form found in the counseling office. We also encourage parents to call in advance to make an appointment to meet with a counselor if the need arises.

 

Second Semester Schedules

Students will receive their 2nd semester list of classes on Monday, December 15th during period 4. Students who have been assigned a wrong course or are missing a required course must come to the counseling office outside of class time to fix the problem before Winter Break.  Counselors will be available to fix these class mistakes on Monday, December 15th from 12:20 pm until 3:30 pm, on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, December 16th – 18th between 7:30 am and 1:30 pm, and on Friday, December 19th between 8:00 am and noon.

 

On Monday, January 12th, students will receive their actual Spring schedule by reporting to their assigned classroom at 8:00 am.  (Assigned rooms are listed below.) Students must then report to their scheduled classes at 8:15 am. If any problems were not corrected before Winter Break, students can ONLY come to the MPR outside of class time before school, during brunch, during lunch, during open periods, or after school. Students will not be allowed to miss any class time to address schedule problems. Changes to spring semester schedules may be done by the student only. Counselors will not be available at any time for parent appointments/phone calls/emails regarding spring semester schedule issues.

ROP Classes Open

Please encourage your junior and/or senior to go to the ROP office and see the variety of classes that are available for next semester. These classes provide an excellent chance to learn about careers while earning elective credits. They are taught by professionals in the field and can give students a great opportunity to learn about a career that they may be interested in before spending the time and money on the same college-level courses. They also have several new classes that have been added to the schedule. You can see the ROP classes online by accessing http://www.hartrop.com/index.php?page=schedule. Send your student to see Mrs. Ivey in the ROP office for more information.

 

Roadmap to College

On January 21st, from 7:00 to 8:30 pm in the Valencia High School gymnasium, the VHS counseling department, in conjunction with the Princeton Review, will be presenting a district-wide program called The Roadmap to College.  This informative evening will inform parents and students about the many responsibilities and recommendations that allow students as many college options as possible upon graduation.  This evening is free and open to the entire district and is perfect for all ages, including 9th and 10th grade students and families.

 

NCAA Clearinghouse

If you have a junior or senior student who plans on being an athlete at the college level, he/she must register with the NCAA Clearinghouse.  The registration website can be found at:  www.ncaaclearinghouse.com.  If your student needs additional help with eligibility issues, he/she can contact Mrs. Stroh in the counseling office or by email at kas@hartdistrict.org.
