Mission
TIS school counselors deliver a comprehensive school counseling program that supports the academic, postsecondary, and social/emotional development of all students to ensure their success in school and beyond.
Vision
TIS counselors empower all students to become compassionate leaders, resilient problem-solvers, and independent lifelong learners.
Goals

* Learn strategies for managing emotions and building interpersonal skills
* Build character through the framework of our Great Expectations Life Principles
* Begin planning for post-secondary opportunities by educating students on course options as well as exposing them to various college and career options each week through "Working on our Future Wednesdays"
