Counselors' Corner

Welcome to Mountain View Elementary School Counseling

Hello and Welcome!

Our names are Ms. Carpenter and Mrs. Devins we are the elementary school counselors at Mountain View. We work with all students, but specifically work with student as we have split the alphabet in half. Ms. Carpenter has the first half of the alphabet A-L, and Mrs. Devins has the last half: M-Z. These letter are according to last name. We thoroughly enjoy working with all of the wonderful students and parents in our school community. Please review the resources on this page and feel free to reach out to either of us with questions or requests for assistance. 

Throughout the school year we offer many different programs supporting the social and emotional development of our students, and are dedicated to providing comprehensive counseling services. We are excited for what the year will bring and working with our students to make each year memorable. 

In addition to counseling services, your student can engage in several different programs throughout the year. Including but not limited to the following:

• Start With Hello
• Week of Respect
• Kindness Club
• Kindness Ambassadors - 5th grade
• Safety Patrol - 5th grade
