The West Hartford School Counseling Program is based on the
belief that every student is important and unique. Our
mission is to guide all students toward the best possible
educational opportunities in a supportive environment, while
promoting an understanding of self and others. School
counselors strive to provide students with the necessary skills
to become productive and healthy citizens. The School
Counseling Program is developmental by design, focusing on
needs, interests, and issues related to various stages of
student growth in three domains: personal/social,
academic, and career/postsecondary planning.
