Guidance
Pupil Personnel Services (PPS)
Today’s active high school student’s day is filled with busy class schedules, homework assignments, co-curricular activities, and family obligations. District 230 offers a Pupil Personnel Services program that provides an integrated system of support from, but not limited to, school counselors, social workers, deans, school psychologists, and intervention specialists. Although the needs of individual students differ, each District 230 school is well-prepared to assist and support every student in the following areas:
-
Academic and Career Guidance Services
-
Social-Emotional Support Services
-
Progressive Discipline Intervention
-
Special Education Services
-
Alternative Education Opportunities
While the PPS staff encourages students to take responsibility for many choices, we strongly encourage parents to be involved in selecting their child’s courses. Students are scheduled for individual registration appointments with their counselor. Parents are welcome to attend their child’s course selection appointment during the school day. Please call ahead to inform your child’s counselor that you wish to attend the meeting. Requests for changes to the course registration process may be made following the initial registration period in February. Available seats will determine whether requests can be accommodated.
Our staff is here to serve you to ensure your student receives the support he/she needs. We look forward to working with both our parents and our students.
