DAY 6 PROGRAM GUIDANCE COUNSELOR

Overview: DAY 6 is an evening program to re-engage students who have dropped out of Everett High School. The mission of our Day 6 is to identify those who have dropped out from Everett High School and re-engage them. It is our understanding that many students want to finish high school but are often met with further barriers that exclude them from opportunities for them to be successful. The goal is to expand our re-engagement efforts by transforming EHS into a Saturday/Night Center for students who have dropped out or are at risk of dropping out. We are looking for a guidance counselor to support re-engaged students and staff.
