San Salvador - School Report Question and Answers

What personal or academic counseling resources are available at this school? Is there a dedicated college counselor at the school? Is he/she familiar with universities worldwide?

I don't have experience with college counseling yet as my kids are younger, but I know it exists. In the lower school, each grade has its own dedicated counselor, which is is way more than our public school in VA had. The counselors are all very approachable and were especially helpful in making sure our kids got settled. They also help kids with social emotional learning. - Aug 2023


I’m aware of college fairs, but I don’t know if they have a dedicated college counselor. - Mar 2022


Teachers and Heads of Year are usually very receptive to helping students when there is a need. You have to reach out to them and encourage your student to do the same. There are college counselors and we are getting ready to meet with our personal counselor soon for my 11th grader. There's also a couple of teachers who are in charge of setting up PSATs and SATs and college seminars. - May 2018


We used personal counseling for help with getting my kids more integrated socially, but it didn't seem to helpful. My oldest child's head of year made great efforts to integrate my daughter, but it just didn't work for her. I don't know anything about the academic counseling resources. - Nov 2016


A, also great. After struggling at a big "american school" the two previous years, my son had some behavioral issues the first year at Los Robles. They very quickly identified a strategy to help him transition and then kept me in the loop with his progress. - Oct 2011
