College & School Counseling

Counselor and Students

Benilde-St. Margaret’s offers a comprehensive guidance program that includes personal and academic counseling, with emphasis placed on helping students plan for their future.

From the very first day every new Red Knight arrives at Benilde-St. Margaret's, a BSM counselor will be their partner through middle and high school until they graduate.

Our team is available every step of the way as your son or daughter proceeds on their educational journey, providing a variety of academic, social, and emotional support services and support to each student. The goal of our guidance team is to provide each student with a positive and enriching experience while at BSM.

Let's explore how the BSM guidance counselors at BSM provide assistance to each student for their time here and their plans for life after high school: 

  • Academic planning
  • Social and emotional development
  • College and post-secondary planning
  • Career exploration and planning
  • Regular individual meetings with students and families
  • Availability to meet with students one-on-one or in small groups
  • Practice admission interviews
  • Opportunities to discuss the best college preparatory courses based on abilities and interests
