How Can I See My Counselor?

DRHS counselors have an open-door policy and are typically available on a walk-in basis for students who are in immediate need or in crisis.

Students with specific topics of concern or who feel more comfortable scheduling an appointment in advance are welcome to do so by emailing or leaving a yellow slip for their counselor.

Please note that if your counselor is not available at the time you come to the office, leave a yellow slip or ask the counseling registrar, Mrs. Kelley, to leave a message with your counselor.

Parents or guardians: It is best to call the office to arrange an appointment to see your student's counselor. This ensures appropriate time allocated to your needs. 

Counselors can help with:

  • Academic counseling (including difficulties and interventions)
  • Short-term and crisis counseling
  • Social-emotional counseling
  • Community resource referrals
  • College and career guidance
  • ICAP support
  • 504 plan coordination and support
