The overall goal of the Lampeter-Strasburg School District Developmental Guidance Program is to facilitate the instructional process. We believe that every student can learn and in partnership with parents, it is our job to provide the opportunities and resources to enable all students to accomplish developmental tasks within the areas of personal, social, educational, and career development. Mastery of these developmental tasks will enable students to acquire the knowledge, skills, and values to become responsible, productive citizens.
Guidance counselors provide a wide range of services to the school community.
The Lampeter-Strasburg School District Developmental Guidance Program was developed by the school counseling department. A combination of research and experience was used to write the comprehensive program. All components of the program were built on the following principles of developmental guidance. These objectives cover the areas of personal, social, educational and career development. A rule of thumb for parents to keep in mind is that a home life with rules and structured learning opportunities is an essential component in the formula for their children to become successful learners.
