Garden City High School

Counseling Department Mission Statement

The Counseling Department’s focus is to support the ever-expanding needs of all students in preparation for meaningful post-secondary living, learning, and earning. Our goal is to prepare students with the skills to manage unpredictable challenges as independently as possible. We continue to evolve in knowledge and understanding of the changing post-secondary landscape, to ensure students are following the appropriate pathway. School Counselors work collaboratively with students, families, and staff to make intentional decisions related to an individual’s journey.
