During the freshmen year, each group meeting has a planned self-esteem exercise focusing on these five components. Information regarding these five components and how they will be addressed in the P.H.A.S.E. program is sent to each parent. Practical issues are discussed during group meetings to include how to get involved in the school, how to maintain relationships with peers and adults, and issues of concern brought to the discussion by students. Self-esteem issues are targeted at every individual meeting freshmen through sophomore year. The personal relationship between the student and the advisor allows for this to occur naturally.
Communication is encouraged to take place throughout the school year on an informal basis.
The individualization of the P.H.A.S.E. program encourages relationship building and communication between the parent, student and school which enhances the student's educational experiences and fosters responsiveness to each student's individual needs. It is believed that the communication fostered through the P.H.A.S.E. program contributes to a positive school climate. Each advisor is responsible for 16 to 17 advisees. The advisors are divided into four groups according to grade level. They meet on a monthly basis under the leadership of a class sponsor coordinator.
