The primary objective of the Guidance program is the overall growth of its students.

Archbishop Rummel High School has a complete guidance program that consists of four full time counselors. College counseling services are also available to assist students with their college planning needs.  These are vital components of the educational process that enable students to assess their needs, recognize their abilities, and formulate strategies to achieve their potential. School counselors guide students to self awareness so that they can make sound decisions and become responsible, productive, lifelong learners.  Students, parents, and teachers are welcome at any time to initiate contact with the appropriate counselor for his or her help. For students in need of specialized assistance, referral services are available.  The Guidance Department also administers a comprehensive standardized testing program.
The results of these tests are provided to students and are available to parents upon
request.

The testing program includes:
 

Eighth Grade EXPLORE
Freshment EXPLORE
Sophomores PLAN/PSAT
Juniors PSAT, ACT
Seniors ACT, SAT
College Placement: The college counselor provides students with the resources needed to research future opportunities and to make decisions regarding post-secondary education and career choices. The college counselor assists students as they engage in procedures necessary for the college admissions process, including information about scholarships and financial aid. The college counselor is available to  discuss the college process with all students. During junior and senior year, the counselor schedules conferences to assist students in making a realistic assessment of college choices.  All Archbishop Rummel High School students are encouraged to discuss their post-secondary education plans with the college counselor as they investigate all the prerequisites necessary for admission to the college of their choice.
