Support Services

Overview

“It takes a village to raise a child.” We believe deeply in this mantra at LBHS, and have worked hard to create a structure of support services to meet students’ needs. In addition to the academic support your students receive in their classes, we also have:

  • Small Learning Communities with dedicated counselors
  • College and career center
  • Leadership classes
  • Partnerships with UC Davis, Sac State and Sac City College
  • Academic tutoring
  • Mental health supports

Counseling Office

Overview

LBHS counselors offer guidance counseling and social/emotional support for our students. The Counseling staff includes five counselors and a college/career technician.  Each student is assigned a counselor by their  small learning community (SLC).

Email Mrs. Kirk at belinda-kirk@scusd.edu if you do not know your student’s assigned counselor.

Students can visit their counselor to discuss grades, attendance, academic plans, adding or dropping classes, and referrals.
