Guidance and Support

Bishop Dunne Catholic School is committed to the moral, physical, emotional and intellectual development of all students. Consequently, we provide extensive support systems to both students and families. Guidance support includes but is not limited to:

  • Academic Advising
  • Emotional Support
  • College Planning
  • Learning Resources
  • Parent Nights & Seminars
  • Leadership Development

 

Bishop Dunne is also committed to the development of a strong community. Therefore, we extend many of our programs to students from Catholic elementary schools throughout Dallas.

Emotional Support

We approach all students and their concerns from a well-rounded perspective. It is difficult, if not impossible, for learning to take place when the student is spending energy on emotional concerns that extend beyond the classroom.

Any student or parent can request a visit with their Guidance Counselor. Emotional support means that we provide brief and short term counseling sessions or consultations. The goal is to assist in the removal of emotional or social obstacles that interfere with the learning process. In situations where long-term interventions are required, the use of outside services is recommended. Issues frequently presented in Guidance include:

  • Divorce
  • Peer Conflict
  • Blended Families
  • Study Skills / Organization
  • Sadness / Loneliness
  • Stress
  • Learning Differences
  • Coping Strategies
  • College Searches & Applications
