Guidance Department

Mission Statement

Our mission as professional school counselors at Cape Henlopen High school is to provide a comprehensive, developmentally age-appropriate and sequential school counseling program that is aligned with the American School Counseling Association (ASCA) National Standards for school counseling.  The program will focus on creating a self-directed, realistic and effective school experience through the partnership of empowered students, educators, parents/guardians and community making all responsible for the learning process.  This collaborative effort provides the basis for students to graduate and become productive and responsible citizens.

Welcome!

The CHHS Guidance Department is committed to working with all students and providing a variety of services in order to help each student reach his or her potential. 

The purpose of this page is to provide information about services, events, and happenings within our school and the community.  It is important that each student be an active participant in his or her education and the community.  If you have any questions, please contact the School Guidance Office Secretary, Sharon Capodanno at (302-645-7898) or your student's school counselor.
