Counseling

in groups, on matters relating to college, career planning, student scheduling,
and personal social adjustment. Students and parents are encouraged to consult

students' interests, abilities and achievements. Counselors work closely with
administrators, teachers, parents, and students to ensure that the South Lyon
High School experience will be a positive one for all involved.
