Welcome!

The GHS counseling team is excited to work with the students and parents in our community.  Our counseling department team can assist you and provide you with important information.  

The Gridley High School Counseling Team wears many hats here at GHS.  Along with academic, college, and career counseling, GHS counselors can provide short-term emotional wellness counseling and can or may refer students out for long-term wellness counseling.

If there is information you would like to see added to our website page, please call Cristina Coats, counseling secretary with your recommendations.  Our goal is that this site is helpful and user-friendly.

Parents: Please make sure you have a current email updated in AERIES.  Counselors send communications through parent email accounts.  Call the GHS counseling secretary if you need help updating your AERIES information.
