THE EDGEWOOD PHILOSOPHY FOCUSES ATTENTION ON THE WORTH AND GROWTH OF EACH UNIQUE PERSON.
The Student Services Department works in accordance with this focus. Each student is assigned a counselor before the start of their freshman year. A student is likely to have the same counselor for four years, unless a need arises for a counselor change.
Guidance involves the total development of the individual; all school faculty and staff are part of the program. The department itself has three full-time counselors, all professionally qualified. Most of the counselors' time is spent in contact with students. The major concern of these contacts is educational, but may also include vocational and personal counseling. Good professional rapport exists among counselors, counselees, parents, faculty and alumni.
