Abstract

The purpose of this study was to gain more information about the perceptions of high school students and staff regarding support services offered in the school. This study was descriptive in nature and used questions from a self-report, web-based survey to gain insight into participants’ perceptions. There were differences both between the student and staff groups and within the staff group of participants. It would be beneficial to continue to study student and staff perceptions concerning the support services available at their schools in order to maximize the use of these resources.
