Amber Lavan -- School Counselor at ABC Elementary School

At ABC, I work with a sensational staff and exceptional kids!  I am fortunate to work with such wonderful children.  During my day, I do individual counseling and group counseling.  I see numerous students on a daily basis.  I also do crisis counseling when needed.  I am currently working on career counseling with my fourth and fifth grade students.  One of my favorite parts of my job is doing classroom lessons.  I do at least two each day and visit every classroom at least every other week.  I have meetings with staff at least twice a week in addition to faculty meetings.  At faculty meetings, I review what I have done during that week.  I also make it a point to meet with teachers and administration during the week.  With teachers, I like to check up on the students who have visited me and see how they are doing.  I update administration regularly on my schedule.  It's a busy job but I wouldn't trade it for anything!  The best part is the kids I see and work with everyday!  Don't hesitate to stop by my office if I can assist you in any way!  :)
