Lisa, Ingebjorg and Alexa are each amazing counselors who serve and support the students in their grade levels, as well as their teachers and families. Not only do they get to know students by name, strength and need, the deep, meaningful relationships they build open dialogue for students to share about their most intimate, vulnerable emotions and experiences.

Phoebe Thompson

I am so grateful for Phoebe's desire to wrap around staff at our school and extend her energy to ensure that they are supported. She always has an encouraging word for others and goes out of her way to make certain they hear the hope she has to share.

The Seahurst paraeducator team has left me in awe time and again this school year. With everything that has shifted due to COVID, this team has rebounded with flexibility and positivity in the face of so many changes.
