Professional school counselors help students grow academic, personal/social and career readiness skills. Educators at MVMS desire for students to THRIVE, strive toward their full potential in school, and prepare to lead fulfilling lives as responsible, contributing members of society. Confidentiality is essential for allowing students to be open and honest in counseling. If there is ever a concern involving someone's safety, appropriate measures are taken.
