Counseling Department
Welcome to Cibola High School's Counseling Department
We look forward to working with and supporting all students and families at Cibola. The 2021-2022 school year brings change, and one of those changes involves the assignment of students for counseling services. Please see updated contact information in the right column.
If you believe there is a life-threatening emergency, harm to self or other(s), please dial "911" immediately.
Request a schedule change
Schedule changes require a special need to make any change. Here is a list of special circumstances that will be accommodated:
- Completion of summer school coursework
- Failed courses from previous semesters
- Changing to a course with a higher degree of difficulty in the same subject area
- Fulfillment of a graduation requirement
- Taking Dual Credit or CEC class
- Not scheduled for seven classes
If a request does not meet any of these special circumstances, a schedule change will not be granted.
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT BELOW
PLEASE REMEMBER: All corrections must be made within the first ten days of the semester. A class dropped after that time results in a "W/F" (withdrawal with the grade of "F") for the course.
SCHEDULE an APPOINTMENT
Starting 2021-2022 school year, counselors have been assigned to students by their last name instead of graduation year, so please make note of the change. To set up an appointment with your counselor, just pick their link below:
