2022-23 Counselor Assignments (by Neighborhood and Alphabet)
Each Student Service Support Team consists of the following: nurse, social worker, psychologist, counselor, and assistant principal and secretary. These teams are assigned to each of the four neighborhoods. A student is assigned to a counselor in their assigned neighborhood according to their last name. That counselor and the rest of their Student Service Team will support that student for all four years of high school through graduation. The team meets, collaborates, and supports the students they share, coordinating services between them as needed and appropriate. Also assigned to all neighborhoods are the ELL counselor and Multicultural Student Services Coordinator.
Students are encouraged to meet regularly with their counselors, and to establish a good working relationship to assist in helping the student work toward their graduation and post HS goals. In addition, the rest of their student service team including the nurse, social worker, and psychologist are available daily for support. Confidentiality is respected, and all issues are open for discussion and problem solving. Given the heavy traffic that is typical in the Student Services office, students wanting to speak with their counselor are encouraged to make an appointment by using their youcanbook.me account listed below. Choose a meeting time that will not cause class time to be missed. Counselors cannot excuse students who come during class time without teacher permission.

College/Career Planning
Madison has a vision for all students – that they will not only graduate, but graduate with the skills and abilities to be successful in college, career and community. We want our students to master academic content, build creativity, confidence and cultural competence, gain a strong sense of self and interpersonal skills and have a growth mindset to help them continually build the skills and abilities to be successful. This vision for Madison’s graduates was developed with input from more than 2500 staff, students and community members.
The Senior Launchpad is your go-to spot for Memorial seniors working on their post-secondary plans. However, anyone is welcome to use this tool and the links, no matter what grade!
