Student Services - Guidance & Counseling

The Student Services Department at Daniel McIntyre Collegiate Institute provides a number of services for students, parents, guardians and teachers.  

Presently, there are three guidance counsellors and a guidance clerk to help with students’ requests and concerns.

 Student services personnel can assist students regarding:

• course selection and planning
• academic support
• social / emotional support
• career exploration and planning
• school/course changes or withdrawals
• Independent / virtual course options
• preparation of transcripts
• information on Manitoba post-secondary institutions

The School Division provides additional testing, counseling, and assessment services through such professionals as social workers, psychologists, audio and speech therapists, psychiatrists and public health nurses. These professionals work closely with each school and may be contacted through Student Support Services.

Students wishing to see a counsellor or resource teacher are encouraged to arrange appointments with him/her directly or to leave a message at the Guidance office. Appointments can be arranged during the student’s spares, during the lunch hour, and prior to or immediately after regular school hours. However, if the student’s needs are very urgent, he/she can be seen during regular class time.
