Mission Statement
The mission of the Roselle Park Public School District Counseling Program is to empower all students to reach their ultimate potential; piloting them to become productive and responsible citizens. Counselors achieve these results through the delivery of a proactive and comprehensive program that promotes the academic, career, and personal/social development of all students. The school counseling program functions as a key component of the total school program. Counselors are advocates who assist students in linking their values, interests, abilities and talents to meaningful life/career goals. It is in partnership with educators, parents, and community members that students will graduate with the integrity, knowledge and skills necessary to be successful contributors to our ever-changing society.
