    Our counselors at Richmond High are Christina Rios (LAW/MMSN), Krista Jann (College and Career), Damaris Franco (Multimedia), Ivan Garcia (Internationals), Alejandro Gonzalez (EPA), and Jessica Calderon (Health).

    The two biggest groups that our counselors target are our Freshmen and our Seniors. Throughout one school year, our counselors will visit and speak with every students from each of those classes. On top of that, all of our counselors will visit the classrooms of all students to discuss courses to achieve A-G requirements (for college) and how to prepare for career readiness. Our counselors work closely with the College & Career Center to ensure that all students have a chance to map their own course in preparation for their future.

    -Check your student's progress on PowerSchool; a poor grade is a cry for help and attention, ask them about the grades and don't accept simple answers

    -Come to parent nights; ie Back to School or Open House. All of our teachers and Counselors are available and can help you schedule a meeting
