Powell High School Counseling Office

The School Counselors at PHS are certified/licensed professional counselors. Each holds a master's degree or higher in school counseling. They are uniquely qualified to address the developmental needs of students. The counselors deliver a comprehensive school counseling program that encourages the development of all students' academic, career, personal and social goals. Maximizing student achievement is of the highest priority.

Should parents have a concern regarding their minor child, they should feel free to contact the office during regular school hours. Many of the services that the school counselors provide are resource oriented and may be accessible through this web-site. Please explore the options we have available on-line and give us feedback on what other things would be helpful for us to provide electronically.
