School Counseling

Every Gulliver student is connected intentionally to a constellation of adults. Students in our Primary and Lower School (grades PK-4) are supported throughout the early years of their Gulliver journey by a counselor skilled in understanding the developmental, social, emotional, and behavioral needs of a younger child. Individual school counselors are then assigned to each student from the moment they arrive in both the Middle and Upper School, and they support every student with a focus on academic progress, social and emotional health, and student well-being. Our school counselors, college counselors, faculty advisors, and teachers work together to share insights about each student’s progress. These relationships are meant both to foster deep connections, and to help each student take advantage of opportunities for growth at Gulliver Prep.

Academic Advising
& College Counseling

Upper School College Counselors support student academic progress from early on in their careers in the Upper School, and take a primary academic advising role beginning in the second semester of the tenth grade. Getting to know students and families before the college process begins in earnest yields the most impactful relationships, the most authentically individualized academic counseling for each student, the deepest advocacy, and ultimately the best fit when it comes to college applications and outcomes. While a school’s college matriculation list can mean different things to different people, to us the outstanding admissions our students earn each year are a testament to the unique opportunities they have at our school, and to the relationships that encourage our students to make the most of them.
