  • Mrs. Donalda Ledene - Guidance Counsellor
      • Ms. Karen Harris - Guidance Counsellor
      • Mrs. Susan Rieseberg - Career Practitioner

      This dynamic group of ladies, also known as the "Counselling Chicks," are all part of a team that coordinates Student Services at Strathmore High School. Student Services provides the following:

      • course and class selections and timetabling
        • career counselling including preparation for application to post-secondary institutions
          • personal counselling (in conjunction with other counselling agencies)

            Focus for September - Registration and Course Changes

            In September, we focus on registering new students and doing course changes for our current students. This is a chaotic time for us in Student Services, but we do manage to work through it - as long as the students are patient! All students are now in courses for the first quarter/semester that they will stay in. We call this the DECIDE and ABIDE policy. SHS gave the students a week to get a feel for the class and if they needed to do any changes that was facilitated. The course change deadline has now passed.
