School COUNSELING SERVICES

Welcome!

We hope that our site will provide you with answers to your questions and information for helping young people pursue their goals.

The mission of the Newport News Public Schools Guidance Services Department is to provide a structural comprehensive program that is preventive and proactive in nature and focuses on each student's potential for growth within the context of his or her individual, family, and multicultural perspective.

We do that with the assistance of certified, professional guidance counselors who assist students, parents, school staff, and outside agencies daily in each of our schools.

A vital goal in the performance of our duties is to provide the highest quality assistance, counseling, and direction to our students. Therefore, we want our site to provide answers for students, parents, and anyone with questions about helping young people strive for and achieve their highest goals and aspirations.

Feel free to browse the many links our site has to offer. As you explore the various pages, we welcome your e-mail comments and suggestions that you might have.
