Admissions

Guiding and Counseling

In today’s rapidly changing world, students face more challenges than ever before—ranging from academic pressure, identity struggles, peer pressure, family issues, to mental health concerns. As the Guidance and Counseling Department, we stand as a pillar of support, ensuring every student is empowered, heard, and guided with empathy and purpose.

Our Mission as Department

Our core mission is to promote the holistic development of students—mentally, emotionally, socially, and morally. We aim to build resilient, responsible individuals who can face life’s challenges with confidence and integrity.

Roles of the Guidance and Counseling Department

  • Academic Support: Goal-setting, time management, career planning.
  • Emotional Counseling: Support for trauma, anxiety, bullying, and self-esteem.
  • Conflict Resolution: Promoting peace, dialogue, and mutual respect.
  • Career Guidance: Mentorship, career talks, and personal discovery.
  • Parental Engagement: Partnering with parents to support student growth.

Discipline Through Dialogue

While discipline is essential for a productive learning environment, we believe in discipline with understanding. Students must understand the consequences of their actions, learn accountability, and be given a chance to reform. We advocate for restorative justice—dialogue, restitution, and forgiveness rather than punishment alone.

Call to Action:
Unity of Purpose

Teachers, parents, and the community must work hand in hand. When we speak with one voice, we reinforce the values of respect, hard work, and responsibility. Let’s not wait for a crisis to act. Let’s nurture and walk with our students every day.

Key Takeaway: Guidance and counseling is not a department for the troubled—it is a safe haven for all. Let us build a supportive school culture where no child feels invisible, unheard, or hopeless. Every child matters. Every voice counts.

By Joseph W. Kiarie – Head of Department, Guidance and Counseling

From H.O.D Science:As Head of the Science Department, I am thrilled to share some thoughts on the vital role of scientific literacy in our rapidly evolving world. In today's society, understanding basic scientific principles is no longer optional; it's essential for navigating daily life, making informed decisions, and contributing to a better future.
