Glad to be at Chebanse

First, I would like to say how excited I am to be here at Chebanse Elementary School, serving the students and their families. I have been a school social worker now for 8 years and love being able to help in any way I can! I am new to Chebanse but not to the district. I previously worked at the CHS and Nash Middle School prior to that, so I am familiar with the community and district!

One of my passions, as a social worker, is assisting kids to see their own potential and appreciate who they are as a person. This in turn impacts how they perform in school and interact with others in their lives. I have two of my own children at home and want school to be a place they enjoy and feel good about going to.

If there is anything I can do to assist you in your parenting journey, please don't hesitate to call. As the year goes on feel free to contact me if you have concerns or just want to chat about something related to your child!
