Counseling

Students' needs are counselors' first priority. We encourage students to connect with their counselors throughout high school so we can get to know one another and can best support students. Students can reach out to their counselor via email or in-person for questions, concerns, support, guidance, or to schedule an appointment.

Our Counseling Office walk-in hours for students are before school, during lunch, after school, or during tutorials. Walk-ins are best reserved for quick check-ins, questions, or to schedule an appointment where more one-on-one attention can be provided.

Academic Counseling & Support

Summer School/Evening School: Counselors will notify students each semester when summer/evening school registration begins, and can make course recommendations to students that need credit recovery (repeating a class to catch up on credits required for graduation). Students will sign up for their courses with their school counselor. Evening & Summer Scholars information and class offerings can be found here.

STAMP Tests: Students who are fluent in a language other than English may be able to take an exam (STAMP test) to earn World Language credits. Students should see their counselor to request information and discuss testing options. (The practice site for STAMP testing is:  www.avantassessment.com)

Multiple Pathways to Graduation: Where EVERY student is Welcome, Wanted, and Worthy. Information about PPS alternative school options and the process for enrollment can be found here.

Academic Tutoring & Support: Students are encouraged to connect with their teachers regarding any concerns or struggles in their classes. Teachers are an excellent resource for obtaining extra support in a class and to provide individualized feedback on how to be successful in their class.

Our SUN program also coordinates tutoring opportunities for students. Students can visit this Franklin SUN Google Site to access forms or requests for tutoring resources.
