A Welcome from the
the Director of Student Services
As the Director of Student Services I would like to
welcome you to The American School of Kuwait where
we are dedicated to helping students reach their
highest academic goals while maintaining a healthy
physical and emotional life. I work along with the
counselors and support personnel in developing and
refining the services available to our students.
Each school - elementary, middle school, and high
school - has a full-time certified counselor. In
elementary the students go to "Life Lab" each week
where they meet with the counselor in a "hands-on"
approach to guidance and personal issues. The
counselor is available for personal appointments
when needed. The middle school uses the first twenty
minutes of class as "Team Time" in which the
counselor provides materials to be used by the "Team
Leader" that deal with specific issues of students
at that age level. In high school the counselor is
available for personal counseling issues as well as
those pertaining to college.
We are constantly developing and revising our
programs to ensure that we are serving the needs of
our international and local students. Should you
have any questions please feel free to contact me at
ness.rebecca@ask.edu.kw.
Thank you,
Becky Ness
Director of Student Services/College Counselor |
