Counseling
The counseling staff uses a variety of activities to help students reach their academic, career, and personal/social potential. Activities include small group counseling, individual counseling, and classroom guidance. Counselors also coordinate school programs such as testing, various evening programs, peer tutors, etc.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Hartford Union High School Counseling team is to provide a proactive, comprehensive, and developmentally appropriate program to address students' academic and career goals in addition to supporting their personal and social needs. This is accomplished through a partnership with parents/guardians, staff, and community members to enable all students to become successful, productive citizens and lifelong learners in a diverse and changing world.
Student Records Information

Any parent or guardian who does not wish to have their student’s information released should contact the District immediately and complete a “Withdrawal of Consent for the Release of Pupil Records” form. This form must be completed each year the student is in attendance at HUHS.
