School Counseling

Student AffairsWelcome! This site is designed for current students and parents, as well as future and former students of Alcoa High School. Here you will find resources that will help current students and parents research colleges and careers, provide information for prospective students, and assistance for students who need copies of their high school transcripts; email all transcript requests to Leann White. Students are encouraged to visit their school counselor for academic, college and career, and personal/social counseling needs.

We have an open door policy at AHS! To meet with your school counselor, stop by the Student Affairs Office. If we are unavailable when you visit, you can schedule an appointment with Ms. White at the front desk or email your counselor.
