TO VISIT YOUR COUNSELOR (NOT THE COLLEGE RESOURCE ROOM)

Obtain a pass from the counselor you intend to visit before school or during the lunch period.
Show the pass to your study hall teacher at the beginning of the period.
Proceed to the Counseling Department offices via door 219B.
The counselors' secretary will monitor your attendance.

COLLEGE RESOURCE ROOM

Hours: 7:30A - 3:45P
Located in the new counseling department offices, in subroom 219A.
Enter door number 219B.
To visit the College Resource Room during the school day, follow the procedure listed below.

TO VISIT THE COLLEGE RESOURCE ROOM OR TO MEET WITH A VISITING COLLEGE REPRESENTATIVE (NOT YOUR COUNSELOR)

Pick up the appropriate blank pass from the Counselors' Secretary at least a day before you want to visit.
Have the teacher whose class you are leaving sign the pass in advance. You will find that most teachers require at least a day's advance warning to grant permission to miss a class. Your teacher has the right to refuse your request. In this case, you should attempt to visit before school, during lunch or your study hall, or during another period.
Present the pass to the Counselors' Secretary and sign in indicating the time you arrive.
Upon leaving, indicate the time on the sign in sheet and retrieve your pass from the Counselors' Secretary. The Secretary will sign and time the pass.
Return the signed, timed pass to the teacher whose class you missed.
