Director, School Counseling Services

In accordance with the guidelines established by the National and New York State School Counseling Associations, the K-12 Guidance and Counseling program of the Manhasset School District has been designed to address the developmental needs of each student and to assist you, their parents/guardians, in helping them as they progress from their earliest days in elementary school up to the planning involved in the development of post-secondary plans. Throughout the course of this journey each student will have the opportunity to participate in individual and/or group activities designed to address their academic, social/emotional, and career needs.
