Counseling Staff • Personal de Consejeria
2025-26

Welcome!

Our school counseling program is dedicated to supporting every student’s academic, social, and emotional well-being. This year, we’re moving from two counselors to 1.5 counselor positions.  Lindsay Selig is our full time counselor and Ali Silcox will be with us 3 days a week. While that means a change in staffing, our commitment to students remains the same — every student will still have access to individual check-ins, small group support, classroom lessons, and a safe space to talk through challenges.

Counselors work with students on topics like problem-solving, organization, conflict resolution, and building positive relationships. We also partner closely with families to help students feel supported both at school and at home.

Here are ways to reach counselors:

Please don’t hesitate to reach out — together, we can help your child thrive during these important middle school years.
