Counseling
We are now accepting appointments. Students needing a Student Educational Plan must make an hour-long appointment. All others may be seen on a drop-in basis, but making an appointment assures minimal waiting time. Currently, appointments are being made approximately 2 1/2 weeks in advance. Call 760-773-2521 to make an appointment. Students are not assigned to a specific counselor.
