Meet the Team
Counselors' Corner
We are honored to serve as the School Counselors at McGown Elementary! We are committed to supporting your child's social, emotional, and academic development throughout their time here. We believe that a strong partnership between home and school is essential for your child's success, and we are here to be an integral part of that partnership.
The role of a school counselor is multifaceted, and our primary goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment where your child can thrive. Here are some ways in which we can assist your child:
Classroom Guidance: We follow the state required Health TEKS to deliver classroom lessons on important topics like conflict resolution, managing emotions, and goal setting, equipping your child with valuable tools for success.
Group Counseling: We facilitate various group counseling sessions on topics such as self-esteem, friendship, and family changes (divorce/illness/grief), fostering a sense of belonging and emotional growth among students.
Individual Counseling: As school counselors, we can offer short term, solution focused counseling to individual students to help them develop essential life skills and coping strategies.
Parent Support: We are here to provide guidance and resources to parents, offering insights into how you can support your child's educational and emotional needs.
Please know that we are readily available to listen, support, and guide your child through any challenges they may encounter. Your child's well-being and success are at the forefront of our priorities, and we look forward to partnering with you to ensure their journey at McGown Elementary is a positive and enriching one.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us via email or by phone at 832-349-7708. We are eager to get to know your child and work together to create a nurturing and successful school experience.
Here's to a fantastic school year filled with growth, achievement, and memorable moments for your child!
