Guidance Department
We are excited about all the new initiatives and programs at Southern High School. The mission of the SHS Counseling program is to enhance high achievement for every student. We are committed to assisting your son or daughter in dealing with a wide range of issues, including academics, career explorations, personal problems and college admission.
A student may request to see a counselor by making an appointment with Mrs. Ramsey, Guidance Secretary. Additionally, counselors will be in the cafeteria on designated days to share information, distribute materials and assist students as needed.
