Welcome to the EHS School Counseling Office Website!
The EHS Counselors have limited office hours over the summer and will respond to emails and phone calls when we are in the office. If you require immediate assistance, please call the Main Office or the School Counseling Office. For emergencies, please see the information below.
New Pennsylvania FAFSA Helpline
The PA Department of Education has announced a new free statewide PA FAFSA helpline: 313 PA FAFSA (313-723-2372). The helpline will connect the caller with a FAFSA expert so the student or family can ask questions or set up personal advising sessions for free as many times as need to complete their FAFSA. The helpline is also text-enabled. Please see this flyer for more information: FAFSA Help (English) or FAFSA Help (Spanish).
EHS Wellness Resources and Website
The EHS Counseling Office is pleased to announce that in collaboration with the EHS School Psychologists, Communities in Schools and other departments within the high school, we have put together the EHS Wellness Resources website (linked here). These resources that can be used by anyone at any time, and will be updated each month based on a topic or theme for that month. We encourage students, educators and families to utilize this resource and as always, we encourage students to reach out to their school counselor or school psychologist if they are struggling.
Additionally, we created a sheet with talking points and tips for parents as well as a COVID-19 related graphic that can help to identify signs of struggle along with links to articles as resources for more information and how to help.
Naviance
The school counseling office is pleased to continue to offer the Naviance system to our students and their families. Naviance is the preferred postsecondary planning resource for EHS school counselors. We encourage all families to utilize the resources found in Naviance. Below is a link to access Emmaus High School’s Naviance Student site. Students must log in using the Single Sign-On option and must be logged into their EPSD account to do so. Parents must register using a registration code, which can be obtained from your child’s school counselor.
