Support Services
“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
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.
