SCHOOL COUNSELING DEPARTMENT
Students are assigned a school counselor and will stay with that counselor throughout the course of their TA career . The arc of our work begins with ninth grade where our focus is on life in secondary school . We emphasize the transition to Thornton Academy , self-awareness , and how best to become an involved community member . In tenth grade , we expand the development of students ’ interests , abilities , and career awareness . This work clears the way for more in-depth post-secondary and college planning , which is the crux of the work with juniors and seniors .
