The Department of Guidance and Counseling of Monsignor Pace High School is an integral yet unique component of the school community, serving students, parents, faculty, and administration. Our staff operates from the foundations and principles of professional counseling, while drawing from the philosophy and mission of our school and a mission deeply rooted in the Marist tradition. We strive to establish a structure of pastoral care and guidance programs. We come to know our students better, provide individual attention to each of them, and promote their personal development and social skills.
