Counseling

College and Career Counseling
At Happy Hill Farm Academy, the process of helping students make big decisions begins by listening and planning together. Students are introduced to, and take, the PSAT on campus. In their junior and senior years, they take the SAT and the ACT as the Academy begins to develop all the options available to each student based on their interests and abilities. Students are helped throughout the process by researching and visiting colleges and universities of interest. The senior year is devoted to submitting applications, preparing essays, and keeping track of supportive documents needed to complete application packets. Testing requirements for different colleges and universities are met. Financial aid plans and scholarships are pursued based on need and interests. Due to many unique relationships, Happy Hill Farm Academy graduates have many opportunities to attain college scholarships. Senior workshops help prepare graduates for the transition to college and young adult life.

Happy Hill Farm Academy graduates are currently serving in the U.S. military as enlisted personnel and officers. They have served honorably all over the United States, as well as in Japan, Afghanistan, Iraq, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, and at duty stations throughout Europe. Graduates are working successfully in the community in small businesses, large corporations in management and analysis, accounting and sales, oil and gas, computer science, education, medicine and science, and design and construction.
