Advisory is an opportunity for our students to build relationships with teachers and same, grade-level peers while working on skills to encourage them to be more successful students and citizens outside of school. Students explore topics such as studying, grades, community service, digital citizenship, graduation requirements, career self-assessments and exploration, planning beyond high school, etc.
Benefits to Advisory:
Improved relationships between students and teachers (Totten & Nielson, 1994)
Increased sense of trust and belonging (Ziegler & Mulhall, 1994)
Better communication among all members of the school community (Simmons & Kiarich, 1989)
