Dedicated school counselor with 14 years experience working with students of various age groups. I've been a classroom teacher to kindergarten, second, and third grade. For the last six years I have been a school counselor to pre-kindergarten, kindergarten, and first grade students. This year I have taken on the role of interim counselor for second, third, and fourth grade. My passion lies in teaching children their value in the world and how to cope using behavioral strategies that allow them to be successful in their daily lives.
