Student Services Center

The Student Service Center's goal is to support all students holistically - physically, academically, socially, and emotionally. Therefore, you can find the offices of two Assistant Principals, Guidance Counselors, Guidance Clerk/Registrar, Community Liaison, Health Clerk, District Nurse, and UpLift and CASSY counselors. See below for more information regarding who to go to for various services.

Assistant Principals

All the Assistant Principals are based in the Student Services Center and are supported by the Guidance Clerk and Health Clerk. The APs have oversight of student behavioral issues and attendance, and coordinate with our Guidance Counselors to support students academically. In addition to supporting students and staff, the APs oversee the safety and integrity of the entire Prospect campus.

Prospect’s Assistant Principals and Guidance Counselors work together to provide students the formative support and resources they will need in order to achieve in high school. The Student Services Center is the starting point for alternative services and student interventions that may be beneficial to students seeking to achieve. In our lively and diverse learning community, the APs routinely remind everyone of our school’s shared behavioral expectations in a simple way: “Take care of business, and play nice in the sandbox!”

School Counselors

The Prospect High School Counseling team strives to assist students in achieving success in all aspects of their lives. Counselors get to know their students in grade nine and remain involved with them throughout high school, providing individual, ongoing guidance on academic, personal, extracurricular, and post-secondary options. College advising is expanded during the second half of the junior year and continues into the senior year as counselors assist students and parents in researching schools, developing a list, and making applications to appropriate colleges and universities. Counselors are also supported by a College & Career Specialist to support with College Applications, scholarships, FAFSA, and more!

Health Clerk

The Health Clerk is available for assistance with the maintenance of immunization records, minor medical emergencies, students who have become ill and need to go home, and issuing PE medical excuses. Every attempt is made to contact parents or the Emergency Contact person listed on the Emergency Card and Registration form. Our ability to contact a responsible adult directly depends on the accuracy of the provided phone numbers. PLEASE UPDATE YOUR PHONE NUMBER IF A CHANGE OCCURS. The Health Clerk is not a nurse and is, therefore, prohibited by law from giving out any type of medication to students without written approval from the student’s doctor.
