The Guidance Department at Hazelwood East offers a variety of services.  It's primary service is to assist each student in his/her continued developmental, educational, and vocational growth.  Thus, the student receives information about developing positive self-concepts and interpersonal skills as well as assistance in planning and adjusting his/her classes.  The student also gains information about careers and receives assistance in seeking financial aid and scholarships for his/her post-secondary education.  The guidance staff consists of five counselors and a department chairperson.
