BG Counselors help students find the best fit when choosing the college or university where they will continue their education. Traditionally, 96% to 98% or more of our seniors go on to colleges or universities all over the US and Canada, including prominent Catholic universities and colleges, the Ivys, state schools, and military academies.

The entire faculty builds and reinforces caring relationships with the students. The relationships are especially visible in the teachers' availability before and after school and in the student's relationships with their counselors.

Students at Bishop Guertin are assigned to a counselor alphabetically and usually remain with that counselor throughout their tenure at the school. This allows the student to become comfortable with the counselor and the counselor to observe patterns of growth and maturity in the students as they work to find the best fit for the student when choosing a college.

The professional counseling staff also seeks to advocate, educate, counsel, consult and support in all areas of the BG community - students, parents, faculty and alumni.

"We respond to the whole student, whose academic, social and emotional growth creates an integrated unique and valued individual."
