    Appointment Scheduling and Hours of Operation

     
    The counseling department is open Monday-Friday from 7:00am to 3:00pm. The counseling department operates on a "walk-in" approach - students are not required to have an appointment to stop in and see their counselor. If the counselor is not available when a students drops in, they will be asked to schedule an appointment at a later time. Students are welcome to schedule an appointment if they prefer, and parents are encouraged to schedule an appointment as well to ensure a counselor will be available when they come in.  
     
    To schedule an appointment, students can come to the counseling office and have Mrs. Zach, Counseling Secretary, schedule the appointment. Students can also email their counselor directly to set up an appointment. Parents are encouraged to contact Mrs. Zach or their student's counselor for an appointment. You can find contact information for a counselor on the Contact Information page. 
     
    The mission of the Downingtown Area School District school Counseling Department is to provide a comprehensive program addressing the academic, career, and personal/social development of all students. In partnership with the school community, counselors provide opportunity to develop a foundation that allows students to identify and explore individual abilities and interests. School counselors facilitate a support system that promotes academic and personal achievement and fosters the skills necessary for students to grow and contribute as productive members of a global society.
