The mission of the Eufaula City Schools’ Comprehensive School Guidance and Counseling program is to provide a structured program of services to ensure that all students (Grades K-12), regardless of their individual differences, acquire the skills, knowledge, and attitudes needed to become effective students, responsible citizens, productive workers, and lifelong learners. Our comprehensive program addresses the educational, career, and personal/social competencies necessary for all students to function and contribute in a changing society.

The Eufaula City Schools’ Guidance and Counseling Department’s Comprehensive Developmental Guidance and Counseling Program is based upon the following beliefs:

• All children are unique and can benefit from the counseling and guidance services described in the Comprehensive Counseling and Guidance Model for Alabama Public Schools (the State Plan), Bulletin 2003, No. 89.
• Every student has the right to participate in activities that promote self-direction and self-development.
• Every student has the right to make choices and accept responsibility for choices made.
• Every student has the right to participate in a comprehensive school counseling and guidance program designed to assist all students in attaining their maximum potential in academic, career, and personal/social development.
