The mission of the West Jefferson Hills School
District guidance and counseling program is to provide developmental and
systematic support to each and every student to ensure their academic, career,
personal, and social development and achievement. West Jefferson Hills

enhance learning by assisting students to acquire critical skills for life long
learning and success. They strive to achieve professional standards and
models for best practice in the field.
Guidance programs provide an array of interventions and support for students.

the community to provide seamless transitions to each student's next steps.
The program assists in the educational, career, and personal/social growth and
community involvement of each student. The ultimate goal of the program is
that each student from the West Jefferson Hills School District will graduate
with the personal, academic, and career-related skills and knowledge to be able
o make self-directed, realistic, and responsible decisions in an increasingly
