School Counseling

As of March 16, all schools in SC are closed due to COVID-19 for a minimum of 2 weeks. All CHS personnel will have remote office hours from 9:00 am - 1:00 pm Monday-Friday and will be available to answer emails during that time. Please refer to the counseling resources we have provided.  Here 

The school counseling program at Chapin High School focuses on the student. We see each student as an individual with unique needs. The program is designed to address the needs of all students by helping them acquire competency in career planning, interpersonal growth, and educational development. The goal is to enable each student to become a responsible, self-sufficient, productive, contributing member of the community. 

Students are assigned counselors by the last name. Please see below.
