college options and provide resources so that families can make the best possible decision.

test-taking skills, scholarship information, etc., in advisory meetings.
6. Help students identify their strengths and the relevance of these attributes to their future.
7. Develop and update college counseling publications distributed to students and families
dealing with all aspects of the college admissions process, financial aid, test-taking practices, and other topics.
