Mission Statement: "Here at PHS we're building respect and learning for success."

Counselor's Message:

The counseling office at Payette High School is here to help students succeed academically and prepare for life after high school. We also help students with social and emotional issues, drug and alcohol problems, and behavior. Students needing ongoing counseling will be referred to an outside agency.

Thanks to the College Access Challenge Grant, we also have a College and Career Guide to help with college and career planning. This year we have Orrie Rodriguez in that position. If you would like to talk to him, call the main office at 642-3327.

If students need to see a counselor, they must fill out a Counselor Request found outside the counselors’ doors (available at any time). The counselor will then send for the student during the day.

Parents are welcome to call or e-mail us anytime.
