Counseling
Goals
The goal of the Christ the King Counseling Department is that students will develop the skills and disposition needed to identify and process their personal, social, emotional, and academic profiles to navigate their present and future life experiences. The counselors accomplish this by assisting students in the following areas:
Academic Planning
• Course selection and the scheduling process.
Career Planning
• Exploration of various career options that correlate to their high school curriculum and their personal strengths and interests.
Personal/Social Planning
• Exploration of emotional intelligence in order to help them build positive relationships inside and outside of the school environment.
Post-Secondary Planning
• College search, college application process, financial aid, and scholarship applications.

As college application season gets underway, navigating the financial aid process is key. We are excited to share a valuable, free resource for all families, particularly those who need extra support with the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).

This includes scheduled seminars and access to virtual counselors to help you complete your FAFSA application correctly and on time.

We strongly encourage any family planning for college to take advantage of this professional, cost-free support.
