Mrs. Eileen Pietila 
Director of Guidance, Grade 9 Freshmen Academy Program & Magnet Students



I am responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the counseling department. I work
closely with administrators and special education services to develop and implement the best possible educational plans, leading to the successful graduation of all our students. I assist with developing the master schedule, coordinate the Early College and First College programs, host the Academic Awards Ceremony, and work closely with at-risk students who may require alternative options in their education. I thoroughly enjoy being part of a progressive division and working at CHS, where each student is considered an individual with unlimited potential for success.
