About the Counseling Department
The Saint Viator Counseling Department collaborates with students, families, teachers, administrators, and other educational partners to provide a comprehensive counseling program to meet the academic, social-emotional, career and college needs of our students.
Counselors foster unique relationships with students as a vehicle to provide individualized counseling, supportive school-wide programs, and an extensive social-emotional and college readiness curriculum so that students reach their highest academic and personal potential.
Saint Viator school counselors meet with students individually to foster students’ growth in academic, personal/social, and college/career domains over the course of four years.
