Parents and future Mustangs,


We look forward to having you here at ERHS! All of our students are assigned to a School Counselor based off of the student's last name and/or program involvement. Students will have an assigned counselor for the next four years and will be available to you for scheduling concerns/questions, assistance with communicating with teachers, grade concerns, navigating the college A-G requirements, college applications, financial aid, career navigation/exploration, personal/social counseling, crisis counseling referrals/resources, and much more.


We encourage you to look through this newsletter as our counselors share important information about getting prepared for your Freshman year!
