Our counselors respect and honor a student’s right to privacy and it is critical to create an atmosphere of trust. This means the information a student shares with a counselor will not be shared without permission from the student or her/his family. There are exceptions to confidentiality and students are informed that the exceptions to confidentiality exist under certain circumstances for their, or other individuals, protection. More specifically, there can be no expectation of privacy if a counselor has a concern that a student may be in danger of harming him/herself or others or if there is a concern about abuse.
