Academic Counselor

The Academic Counselor helps students and families understand where students are academically, what credits are still needed, and what steps must be taken to move toward graduation. At Outlook Academy, counseling support is focused on helping students create a clear plan for school success and life after high school.

  • Help students understand credit requirements and what they still need to graduate.
  • Support course planning, class placement, and credit recovery planning.
  • Communicate with students and families about academic standing.
  • Help students set goals and develop a plan for graduation.
  • Support planning for college, career, trade school, military, employment, and other post-secondary options.
  • Provide guidance related to scholarships, FAFSA, career pathways, and next steps after high school.

Student Success Planning

Every student’s path is different. The goal is to help each student understand their current progress, identify what still needs to be completed, and create a realistic plan for finishing strong.
