What is the function of guidance office?


The Guidance Office designs and implements development programs to help students mature more
holistically as they move through the different learning stages. The guidance counselors provide such
services as counselling, test interpretation, and individual inventory.

Guidance Philosophy and Purpose

The basic philosophy, which underlies the guidance program, is that this ongoing process during their
high school education should serve all students.

The purpose of the guidance department is to assist students in making wise decisions and plans
concerning themselves, their education, and their career. It provides students with information that will
enable them to make appropriate choices both now and in the future. Teachers and counselors work
together to carry out this purpose.

Guidance services are offered to all students in Delphi Community High School. Students are encouraged
to seek the assistance of counselors in making educational and vocational plans. Counselors are
professionally trained to assist students with personal-social concerns.

Parents are urged to become acquainted with the school counselors who welcome their visits and help
in working with students in school.

This role of spiritual director has historically been filled by ministers, pastors, priests, religious brothers
and sisters. They have been the ones sought out by spiritual seekers and those desiring particular
spiritual growth. Through the years that has changed for some interesting reasons.

attention should be paid to students who are placed on academic probation.

Approve all designated educational transactions (e.g., pre-registration/registration schedule,


drops/adds, withdrawals, change of major and advisor, waivers, graduation requirements, etc.).

Try to make informal out-of-class/office contacts to underscore personal interest in the student as an
individual.

Maintain an up-to-date Advising Portfolio, with a summary record of performance to date (grade
reports, transcript, requirements completed, etc.), dates of conferences, notation of special
circumstances, up-to-date MyStuff information and details, etc.

Inform and, if necessary, refer students to other institutional resources when academic, attitudinal,
attendance, or other personal problems require intervention by other professionals. (e.g., Office of
Academic Development, Academic Services, Personal Counseling, etc.)

Proactively contact and be available for student advisees on a regular basis. Office hours should be
posted on the advisor’s office door and preferably given to the advisee early in the semester. Advisors
should plan for extended hours during pre-registration advising.
