The Counseling Program is an integral part of the total educational process at Archbishop Chapelle High School.  Its main purpose is to help students make adequate choices and adjustments for their spiritual, academic, emotional, and social development.

What is the Counseling Program?

The goal of the  counseling approach department is to help students become independent young women and give them the tools they need to become mature adults. The program also strives to help parents and teachers understand the needs and developmental progress of the students, and to supply information, materials and consultative assistance aimed at supporting these efforts.

The Counseling department consists of four counselors who are available for individual counseling. At the start of  a student’s time at Chapelle, a counselor is assigned  alphabetically for personal and academic counseling, their counselor stays with them during their entire time at Chapelle. The counselors work with each student individually to help create a personalized schedule that best fits their academic strengths.  A College Counselor orients all grade levels to the college planning/preparation process.  All communication between the student and the counselor is confidential.
Students are invited to take advantage of the counseling assistance preferably by appointments or on a drop-in basis.

Our full time College Counselor is available to assist students in the college planning process.​ As early as freshman year, parents are given the opportunity to learn about college preparation and what they can do to help their students have the greatest success in college and beyond.

Counseling Programs and Initiatives

  • Girl Code - an 8th grade program that helps orient new students to high school through peer mentoring, guest speakers, and small group activities
  • Academic Groups - this provides opportunities to teach study skills, goal setting, note taking, and helps students learn how to be successful in their courses
  • Drug Awareness - a school-wide initiative that keeps students informed and gives them the tools to help them stay drug free
  • Anti-Bully -promoting positive interaction with their peers and learning how to resolve conflict
  • Social Media Awareness - bringing to light the power of using social media in a positive way and the possible pitfalls when it is not used properly
  • Coffee with the Counselors - students get a chance to grab an iced coffee and a donut and spend some time with our counselors, allowing them to interact with the counselors in a more relaxed and fun way
  •  Career Exploration - through career inventory and Career Day, students get a chance to explore a variety of career choices and use that information to guide their elective course selection
  • Suicide Prevention - sophomores learn about the warning signs of suicide, how to help if they feel someone is in trouble, and how to deal with their own feelings to prevent suicide
  • Sudden Impact - partnering with LCMC and local and state agencies, sophomores learn about the dangers of impaired driving and  witness a realistic scene and subsequent trial of a student who made the choice to drive impaired
