Laguna Beach High School offers a comprehensive guidance program that recognizes each student is unique. Counselors are available to offer direction as students plan their academic futures. Starting in ninth grade, students work with their counselors to create a four-year academic plan that will lead to a career or to the university or college of the student’s choice. Each year, the counselors help students continue to achieve their short-term goals, so they can ultimately meet their long-term aspirations. Counselors also provide confidential and supportive counseling and intervention as they foster independence and help students face emotional challenges.
