Academic Advising

At Salesian High School, we firmly believe that academic advising is a cornerstone of a student's educational journey. It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the implementation of comprehensive and personalized academic advising strategies aimed at empowering every student to thrive in the classroom and reach their full academic potential.
 
Our goal is to foster a supportive and nurturing environment where each student receives the guidance and resources they need to succeed academically. The key components of our enhanced academic advising program include:
 
  • Individualized Academic Plans: Each student will be provided with personalized academic plans, taking into account their unique strengths, interests, and aspirations. These plans will be regularly reviewed and updated to ensure that students are on the right track to achieving their academic and career goals.
  • Early Intervention and Support: We have established an early intervention system to identify students who may need additional support promptly. Through targeted interventions such as tutoring, study groups, and academic workshops, we aim to address any academic challenges and help students improve their performance.
  • Mentorship and Guidance: Our mentorship program pairs experienced teachers, senior students, or community volunteers with freshmen and underclassmen. This mentorship will focus on study habits, time management, and goal setting, providing invaluable guidance throughout their high school journey.
  • Parent Involvement: We believe that parental involvement is crucial to a student's academic success. We will engage parents and guardians through regular meetings, progress reports, and workshops to equip them with the tools to support their child's learning effectively.
  • College and Career Readiness: We are committed to preparing our students for success beyond high school. Our academic advising program will include college and career readiness components to help students make informed decisions about their future.
  • Data-Driven Decision Making: Student data and academic performance analytics will be utilized to identify trends and areas of improvement. This information will enable us to make data-driven decisions to continuously improve our academic advising strategies.
  • Collaboration with Teachers and Faculty: Strong collaboration between academic advisors and teachers will ensure a seamless flow of information about each student's progress, enabling targeted support and intervention when needed.
 
We believe that by implementing these strategies, Salesian High School will foster a culture of academic excellence and support, allowing every student to flourish in the classroom and beyond. Our commitment to your child's success remains unwavering, and we are confident that our enhanced academic advising program will make a significant difference in their educational journey.
