The mission of Student Support is to facilitate growth of all students in achieving optimal academic, behavioral, and social functioning. Our goal is for students to return to their comprehensive schools or graduate and experience success. 
This mission is addressed through individual counseling, group counseling, crisis prevention and intervention. Staff also consult with students’ families and comprehensive school staff as well as linking families to community resources.
