2011 - 2012

My goal here is to provide a comprehensive school counseling program.  The guidance curriculum consists of structured developmental lessons designed to assist students in achieving the desired competencies in the academic, personal/social, and career areas.  Individual student planning will assist students individually in establishing personal goals and developing future plans.  Responsive services are the traditional duties of a school counselor.  These are typically in response to life situations and are very important to continue.  Please feel free to contact me any time using the "Contact Me" link on the left.  I look forward to working with you and your children.

Riverside West students are currently learning the value of being caught in the act, of being good that is.  Students are participating in the first year of the "Get R.E.A.L. at Riverside" program.  More information will be posted shortly about this positive behavior support plan.

This is a great site for parents to find resources and information on bullying. It covers everything from protecting your children through life after bullying. Take the time to read the section on cyber-bullying as it is the fastest growing problem in schools today. As always, please contact me if you would like further information on any of these topics.

Thank You,
