As a school counselor, I support both the academic and social-emotional development of all students. I visit classrooms to teach social-emotional lessons, I hold small groups, and I meet with many students individually. Students know my nickname is Miss Ladybug because I’m a lady they can talk to if something is bugging them. Students talk to me about friendship, worries, changes, anger, death/loss, divorce, and any topic you can think of! I look forward to partnering with your family to ensure your child’s success throughout the school year. Please don't hesitate to contact me (aatkins@usd497.org) with concerns, questions, or any information you feel would be helpful for us to know about your child.
