The AISD Guidance & Counseling mission is to implement a comprehensive guidance and counseling developmental guidance and counseling program in grades preK-12 promoting student success through a focus on academic achievement, prevention and intervention activities, advocacy and social/emotional and career development to meet the needs of the students and community of AISD.

The comprehensive developmental guidance and counseling program model is embedded into the AISD academic curriculum and covers these strands:

• Self-knowledge and acceptance
• Interpersonal and communication skills
• Responsible behavior
• Conflict resolution
• Decision making/problem solving
• Motivation to achieve
• Goal setting
• Career planning

We encourage you to make an appointment with your student's counselor to view the guidance curriculum and discuss what you can do together to create the most successful educational experience possible.
