Counseling and Guidance
Attention current students and parents. Please log on to the PCR Student portal or PCR Parent portal for specific counseling department information.
Serra's Guidance Department provides services to meet the academic, college, career, and personal counseling needs of each student. It is the department's goal to provide students at all levels with appropriate academic advising, to supply them with college and career information necessary for effective decision making, and to provide personal counseling as it relates to school performance.
Students are assigned a counselor according to his homeroom. Guidance counselors make daily contact with some of their assigned students in the group context of homeroom where important information applicable to every student is presented. Counselors monitor their assigned students' academic performance and initiate individual contact with students as the need arises. Faculty members, staff or parents may refer a young man to his counselor for consultation. Students are encouraged to initiate contact with their counselors as necessary.
