8th Grade Counselor- Ms. Roxane Lopez
I am here to help! |
.Please use your counselor as a resource! I work daily with students on academic and personal needs. I collaborate with administrators, teachers, students and parents to problem solve on a vast array of issues. My main role is to be an advocate for my eighth grade students but I also provide system support as the 504 liaison.
A little about me: I have lived in Austin for eleven years. I enjoy being active in my church, dancing salsa and two step, kayaking, tennis, reading fiction, watching movies, and traveling. I grew up as a migrant student moving from Crystal City, Texas to Deckerville, Michigan every year, I had to change schools every year in the middle of the school year, which brought a host of challenges. I often had to make new friends every time I came back to Texas. In high school, it was more difficult academically because each school was at a different point in their curriculum when I would arrive and each state has different curriculum standards. My experience as a migrant student is what compelled me to become an educator and later a counselor. I am loving working as a counselor at Kealing. I continue to learn and grow in this profession along with my students. Since the counselors follow the same cohort of students, I feel really fortunate to be able to continue to forge relationships with my students as they go through Kealing! If you are a parent the best way to reach me is via email at [email protected]. You can also call me at (512) 414-2444. |
