All are discussed in the strictest of confidence as regulated by law. Students are encouraged to make appointments when possible or to visit with a counselor as immediate needs arise. Students may participate in group counseling opportunities throughout the school year.
At times, because of the serious nature of some problems, referrals may need to be made to outside agencies such as Wisconsin Lutheran Child and Family Service and others.
