Mrs. Cervantes - Primary Counselor

1. Academics: Nurturing a Passion for Learning In the academic domain, my goal is to support our students on their educational journey. I collaborate with teachers and parents to identify areas where students may need additional assistance or advanced challenges. I work closely with individuals and groups to develop effective study skills, time management techniques, and organizational strategies. By fostering a growth mindset and a love for learning, we aim to lay a strong foundation for their future academic endeavors.

2. Social-Emotional Development: Building Resilient Individuals The social and emotional well-being of our students is paramount. I am here as a resource for both students and parents to address emotional challenges, promote positive peer relationships, and develop essential life skills such as empathy, communication, and self-regulation. Through small groups, one-on-one sessions, and classroom guidance, I create a safe space where students can express themselves, manage stress, and navigate the complexities of their emotions effectively.

3. Career Exploration: Planting the Seeds of Aspiration Even at the elementary level, it's never too early to spark curiosity about the future. This year I would like to facilitate age-appropriate activities and discussions that help students explore various careers and understand the connection between education and their future aspirations. By fostering early career awareness, we empower our students to dream big and set meaningful goals for themselves.

Let's work together to create a nurturing and empowering environment that allows our students to flourish in every aspect of their lives.

Here's to a year of growth, discovery, and achievement!
