The Role of the School Counselor

 
Mrs. Pertner is available to both students and their parents for support 
regarding their acedemic pursuits at St. Paul High School.  She is meeting 
with Seniors for college information as well as career/major information and 
taking the ACT or SAT test.  

She is also available to meet with students regarding other issues that is 
affecting their abilities to meet their full potential both at home and at 
school.  These issues might include topics such as self-esteem, anger 
management, getting along with others, developing leadership skills, 
transitioning from high school to college environments, and any other topics 
that might come up.

She is also available to go into classrooms, at the request of other staff, 
and conduct classroom session regarding any of the topics that are needed to 
promote a respectful learning environment for all.

Mrs. Pertner can also be a source of referral to community counseling 
agencies that may also support our students if the need is out of the school 
counseling scope of practice.
