Welcome to the Maritime Guidance Center!

Important Resources

WNY Maritime Charter School is dedicated to creating a learning environment that is accessible to all students. The Guidance Department will provide consistent contact with parents and students to make sure needs are met. The counselors will keep communication lines open, provide counseling services remotely and in-person to help support students through social emotional development. We will provide crisis intervention if it is needed per individual needs/cases. Counselors will communicate with special education teachers, general education teachers and administration on a regular basis and intervene when necessary to provide student support.
