What Is A Comprehensive Guidance Program?
The Fairfax R-3 School District has adopted the Missouri Comprehensive Guidance Model. It is composed of the following four program components: guidance curriculum, individual planning, responsive service, and system support.
While the counselor is responsible for organizing and implementing the guidance program, the cooperation and support of the community, school personnel, and parents will be necessary in order to make it successful and beneficial to the students at Fairfax R-3 School.

The Missouri Comprehensive Guidance Model offers curriculum for students in grades kindergarten through twelve. Please feel free to review the curriculum with me at any time so that we can work together on meeting the needs of the students in our school.
