The purpose of this page is to provide information about guidance and counseling education.  A guidance counselor's main focus is to ensure  student needs are being met in their personal/social, academic, and career development.  My hope is this website will make it easier for student(s), parent/guardian(s), and the community to connect to resources, organizations, and individuals who can help make this possible.  By working together, we can help students focus on want they need, to become successful members of our society.

Together we make learning happen for tomorrow"

Mission Statement
Please visit the Guidance Lesson tab to explore the concepts and content our students are working on.  I encourage you to discuss what we learn in class with your student(s) so they understand how these lessons go beyond the classroom and connect with your family & community.

The What's Next tab is for providing information about planning.  There are a lot of different opportunities available for students.  These resources should help you to evaluate what choices are available for students as they prepare for and work toward meeting their post-secondary needs.  

The Support tab is to provide information about different services available.  Please use this page is to location contact information for local agencies to help with needs including: Educational, Financial, Emergency Shelter, Employment, Food, Clothing, Housing, Legal Assistance, Medical, Dental, Counseling, Transportation, Utilities, Abuse, etc.

If you are unable to find the information you are looking for please let me know.  I would love to help.  Email me at: kwalker@usr2.com or call (816)593-2294.
