High School Counselor Information

We know what an important partner you are in helping students find the college that’s right for them.

We want to share as much about SEMO with you as we can in hopes you can help us find our next flock of Redhawks who are going to do great things.

If you aren’t familiar with SEMO, allow us to share just a bit. First, we’re a school of doers and hard workers. Our students know they will earn everything they get. Our faculty know our small campus means they can give students the time and attention they need. Our mission means we educate students ready to take on the world. And, to do that, we have to offer them groundbreaking academics, looking toward the marketplace, so they’re ready for a career. Finally, more than a few students have told us when they visited, it just felt like home.
