School Counseling
Regis Jesuit's School Counseling Office serves to promote, support and enhance student development in becoming young adults who are Open to Growth, Intellectually Competent, Loving, Religious and Committed to Doing Justice in the world—the profile of a Jesuit high school graduate at graduation. Each student is paired with a school counselor with whom they build a relationship with over their four years at Regis Jesuit. The counselors provide students academic, career and personal/social counseling in a variety of settings. Throughout a student's high school career, but especially during their junior and senior years, school counselors work in tandem with the College Counseling team to ensure each student is ready for the next step in their journey. They achieve this by helping students learn to think critically, advocate for themselves and take responsibility for their actions and decisions.
An attitude of openness, acceptance, honesty and compassion is the key to a good relationship between counselor and student.
The Learning Services Program at Regis Jesuit High School is designed to maintain the dignity and uniqueness of individuals with diagnosed learning differences.

As part of the online application, parents must submit a psychoeducational evaluation report completed by a school psychologist or private licensed psychologist that includes a diagnosis, complete test results, and recommended school accommodations. School district IEP or 504 plans are also included. NOTE: Please indicate Yes to the question asking if your student has an identified learning difference.

Learning Services Program
Our Learning Services Program supports students with specific learning differences so they may work toward their academic potential. These diagnosed learning differences include reading disorders, math disorders, disorders of written expression, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders and physical disabilities. Psychological disabilities, such as anxiety or depression, are addressed through the Counseling Office and sometimes through private counseling. Anxiety toward testing, while impactful, is not accommodated through the Learning Services Office. Students who are intrinsically motivated and committed to improving organizational, self-advocacy and communication skills are the most likely to be successful in the program. We provide limited classroom accommodations which include extra time on quizzes and exams, help with notetaking and preferential seating.
In order for students to access official accommodations, they must provide a comprehensive psychoeducational assessment conducted by a licensed psychologist within the last three years and commit to being re-evaluated when the current evaluations expire. This evaluation must include a statement of the specific learning difference and how it affects the student. A disability code as specified in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV or V) is preferred. The evaluation should also include complete results from comprehensive cognitive testing, achievement testing, and other measures on which the diagnosis is based as well as recommended school accommodations for the student. For further information regarding the Learning Services Program, please contact the Director of Learning Services.

Nurse's Offices
To ensure the health and safety of our students, each division has its own Nurse's Office staffed on school days by a registered nurse who is supported by parent volunteers with medical experience or backgrounds. The Nurse's Offices provide care for sick students, support those with ongoing medical conditions such as severe allergies, epilepsy or diabetes and partner with our coaches and athletic trainers to care for students recovering from athletic injuries including concussions.
Food Service Program
Regis Jesuit partners with Flik Independent School Dining (FISD) to provide our school food service program. They manage the operations of both cafeterias and the Steele Center Café, as well as provide catering services for school events.
