Mission Statement
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 opportunities 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.
Regular Hours of Operation
The Counseling Department is open year-round Monday-Friday from 7:00am to 3:00pm. Counselors are available during the school year from 7:25am-2:55pm each day school is in session.
Appointment Scheduling
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 student 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.
