Advisory

The advisory program is at the core of the EBS experience. This daily period provides students a small group environment in which to develop relationships with one another and with an adult advocate, promoting positive school climate. Drawing from the school's four guiding pillars (Life, Prep, Work, and Self), the advisory program promotes opportunities for social-emotional development and academic support. The program is predicated on the belief that every student should build at least one close relationship with an adult at school and that every student needs to actively engage in self-advocacy.

The EBS advisory program provides: a mission-aligned curriculum that supports social-emotional and academic development; a dedicated space and time for students to voice their needs, hopes, and ideas in a small-group setting; and opportunities for advisors and advisees to partner and consult on individual matters.
