Counselor's Corner

Ms. Jackson provides individual/group counseling and crisis intervention services to students as well as referrals to community agencies if necessary. She provides support to parents regarding ways to better understand their child's developmental and academic needs and techniques to assist their child's educational progress. She works closely with teachers in consulting on students' behavioral and personal adjustment needs. In addition, the student services department also works on student records issues, college and high school class scheduling, and 4-year university application information. For more information about what counselors do and the profession of school counseling, visit the American School Counseling Association website.

Mr. Testa, the college liaison, can assist students with college scheduling and applying to colleges, as well as any other college needs that students may have. His role is to be sure that our LEC students are on track to graduate with their Associate’s degree. Please contact him regarding any college scheduling or associate degree concerns.

NEED TO SEE THE COUNSELOR?

To schedule an appointment with Ms. Jackson, a student should:
1. Stop by Ms. Jackson's office before school, during lunch, or after school to set up an appointment with her. Depending on the counselor’s schedule, she will do her best to see the student as soon as possible.
2. If there is an emergency situation, a teacher can refer a student to the student services office at any time and they will be assisted.
