Notes on Translation
The electronic translation service on the York Region District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The York Region District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The York Region District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

The focus of the Guidance and Career Education program at Keswick High School is to help each student successfully complete high school, and realize their full potential, by setting goals that lead to an appropriate post-secondary pathway in the world of work, apprenticeship, college or university. The program is delivered through classroom instruction, seminars, field trips, guest speakers and individual academic and career counselling. Guidance counsellors also provide students with short-term personal counselling and referrals to community agencies, help with problem-solving skills to deal with personal or school-related issues, assistance with course selection, and information on how to earn the required 40 hours of community involvement activities.
Guidance counsellors are assigned by alphabet (alpha) and appointments may be arranged in the Guidance office (located beside the main office)or by following the instructions below:

your appointment for any reason, click “Cancel”. If you have
any trouble making your appointment, please let the Guidance Department
know.
