Welcome to Collister Elementary! I am honored to be the counselor at this wonderful school. It is my intention to ensure success in school for each student in this school.

Schedule: Monday AM, Tuesday all day, Thursday all day

Focus areas:

• Classroom guidance: I will be in your child’s classroom once a week sharing lessons that help students learn to understand themselves better, communicate clearly, and get along with others. Occasional handouts and letters will be coming home with your child. Please be sure to read the letters and discuss the guidance lesson with your child.
• Small groups: As the year goes on, I may offer a variety of small groups that will assist students in being a better student, adjust to changes in their lives, or get along with others better. These groups may have topics such as anger management, social skills, or organizational skills.
• Individual work with students: My door is always open to students who need help adjusting school or dealing with specific problems they are experiencing.
• Parent/staff consultation: My services also include consultation with parents and staff in the best interests of your child. If you would like to meet with me, please feel free to call to set up an appointment.
