The Sidney Jr./Sr. High School Guidance Office is located on the first floor of the high school. Any visitor coming to the guidance office must first sign in at the main office and get a visitor pass. Our office is open Monday-Friday from 7:40 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
There are two counselors available in the Guidance Office. Julianne Nicolette works with students in grades 7-9, and Jody Gravelin works with students in grades 10-12. Our phone number is (607) 561-7703.
The Guidance Office offers many services and supports. We assist students with scheduling and with mapping out a four-year plan for high school. We explore the possibilities beyond high school, including college, the world of work, and the military. We also assist students with the college application process and provide many resources for scholarship possibilities. We maintain a “College and Career” Center for students to resource, and provide information on leadership opportunities such as HOBY and RYLA. Additionally, we offer short-term counseling for students to help them navigate the “bumps” that might interfere with their academics. Progress reports and report cards are generated through the Guidance Office as are many other high school academic reports.
The Guidance Office is here for every student in grades 7-12. Our goal is to challenge students to achieve their greatest potential, to support and assist them along the way, and to help them find success as they enter the world upon graduation. Our door is always open, and we welcome and appreciate collaboration with our students, their parents, the faculty, and the community.
