Let's Schedule a Meeting
Follow the steps below to find your counselor, complete your paperwork, and schedule your visit!
Step 1: Find Your Person & Schedule
How do I decide who to schedule with?
Counselors are pre-assigned to you based on the first letter of your last name. But not all meetings will require a counselor, there are specific instances when a registrar is helpful as well. Click below to expand scenarios that will help you identify who you should meet with today.
Step 2 - Complete the Counseling Consent Form
Under Utah state law, school counselors must have written parent/guardian permission before providing individual or group counseling services to a student. To allow our counseling team to support your child, please download, sign, and return the consent form below.
Already signed one this year? You only need to complete this form once per school year. If you have already submitted it, you can skip right to Step 3!

PCCR (College & Career Readines)
