Kaiser High School Counseling Department (Building A, 2nd floor)
Welcome to Kaiser High School's Counseling Department! We aim to serve our students and promote academic achievement, career development, and personal and social growth. Our team is dedicated to each student. We work collaboratively with parents, teachers, staff, and administration to support a positive school climate and student success. Our counseling program ensures students will develop relationships with their assigned counselor and prepare them for their post-high school goals.
We look forward to working with our students and families this school year.
HOW TO SEE YOUR COUNSELOR
Students are welcome to stop by the counseling office without an appointment before school or at lunch with any questions or concerns they may have. If you come during class time, you will need to bring a pass from your teacher. However, if the student is in need of immediate support, an attendant in the counseling office will direct the student with a staff member for assistance.
Parents can call or contact us via email to set up an appointment to meet with a counselor.
