Counseling

If your child needs support, our school counselors are here to help. 

 

• Our School Counselor, Dr. Sweney-Black, and our Intervention Counselor, Stephanie Ruiz, provide support to students as they navigate middle school and adolescence. The counselors can help students who are struggling academically,  behaviorally, and emotionally to find the resources and support to help them become more successful.  tsweneyblack@nlmusd.org & struiz@nlmusd.org
