While you are a student at Fonda-Fultonville
High School, it is important for you to give some thought to
your direction and individual goals. What you want to achieve in the future will, in most cases, determine the courses and activities you choose while in high school. The selection of courses should be carefully thought out from year to year, giving consideration to your interests, abilities, and future plans.
Why visit a guidance counselor?
Your counselor is one person who can help you sort out all possibilities and aid you in making both educational and career decisions. There is extensive information in the guidance office and library to aid you in your decision making process. Discover, our computerized information system, has added an extra dimension to choosing careers and/or post high school training. The Discover Computer is located in the high school library.
No matter what you want to do in the future, you need to continually check your progress toward graduation and achievement of your goals. Your counselor is here to help you with that process.
Here is a guideline for times when you should see your
counselor.
-
If you have problems that you would like to talk about confidentially.
-
If you wish information concerning application requirements for colleges, nursing schools, trade and vocational schools, business colleges.
-
If you need help in selecting courses which will provide you with the background to meet requirements for further academic study or vocational/occupational career choices.
-
If you need an explanation of standardized testing results.

college?
