Counselors' Corner

Counseling for Students

Lee-Scott Academy offers academic and student support services to students in K4 through 12th grade in order to enhance their learning experience. We acknowledge each student is unique in his or her learning, means of processing information, problem solving approaches, and ability to use information. We empower students to become independent learners and self-advocates with their peers, in the classroom, and in their everyday life.

The growth and independence of each Lee-Scott Academy student culminates in the college search, under the guidance of our experienced college counselor. Our counselor interacts with students on many levels throughout their Upper School career allowing them to enter the process with a unique respect for students’ strengths. Providing students with the opportunity to learn about colleges and begin to form connections is an important part of the search process.
