Career development can be obtained through several venues at Forest High School. The Guidance Counselors are available to discuss career options and have a vast array of resources in their offices. There is a Career Lab located in building 3, room 4 where students have the opportunity to participate in hands-on activities designed to assess learning styles and vocational interests. Students will be matched with recommended jobs based on interests, scores, and abilities. The computer program, Choices, is available in the lab for students to research colleges and scholarships. The Career Lab is open on Mondays and Tuesdays from 2:00-3:00 p.m. See Career Lab Specialist (Tony Cayson) for more information. The referral/liaison segment of our guidance department includes roles such as: a conciliator between students, parents, teachers, and administrators; a guide to outside community programs and resources; and a liaison with military, college, and vocational school representatives who visit regularly throughout the year. Forest High School encourages parent-teacher conferences. Please call the school Guidance Office to arrange a conference with teachers (671-4700). Short-term counseling is provided for all students, as needed. Although the counselors do not provide long-term, intensive therapy or psychiatric evaluations, they advise and refer students and parents to outside agencies and professionals. Because personal emergencies do arise during school, counselors are available to aid in crisis situations that involve students. |
