Guidance

Welcome to the PV Guidance Department!

The guidance department is run by Ms. Lindsey Toth, Mrs. Jennie Jacobs and Mrs. Terri Praschak. Families with the last name A-F work with Ms. Toth, families with the last name G-N work with Mrs. Jacobs and families with the last name O-Z work with Mrs. Praschak. 

The PV School Counselors work closely with teachers, families, and other school staff. The counselors are available to answer questions as well as arrange parent-teacher conferences. They also work extensively with students by providing academic, social, and emotional support as needed.

Some of the activities the guidance department organizes include:

• 6th grade transition program    • 6th grade interview
Naviance Counseling (Gr. 7 & 8) • Natural High Program 
• 9th grade transition program  

 

Throughout the year the guidance department also is involved in:

• scheduling • crisis intervention
• peer mediation • academic intervention
• academic planning • HIB
• peer leaders • I&RS

 

The guidance department looks forward to working with all families throughout their three years here at PV.  For more information please contact your child's school counselor.
