Counseling

Welcome to the NGMS Counseling Department 

Counseling supports the development of the whole child by advocating for academic, social/emotional, career, and postsecondary needs and strives to develop life-long learners and productive citizens.

The counseling program in Adams 12 Five Star Schools works collaboratively with parents, community members, and educators to empower every child, regardless of individual differences or obstacles, to ensure all students are prepared for meaningful, productive learning through a data-driven comprehensive K-12 school counseling program.
