Mission Statement

The mission of Capistrano Unified School District School Counselors is to provide a comprehensive counseling program that supports the whole child. School Counselors will focus on the needs, interests and issues related to social-emotional, academic, and career development of all students through a multi-tiered system of support. School Counselors will advocate, collaborate and facilitate actions that promote a positive school climate, provide an opportunity for all students to access their education and achieve personal and academic success to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world.

• I believe school counselors have a responsibility to educate, advocate for, and motivate students from all backgrounds and abilities. 
• I believe all students are capable of achieving their goals if given the opportunity. 
• I believe school counselors should consult and collaborate with teachers, parents, and staff in order to create the most effective plan to help a student thrive.
•  I believe school counselors have the unique role of helping students achieve educational and personal success by guiding them in the domains of academic, college and career readiness, and social/emotional development.
