Counselor's Corner
My name is Angie Adamek and this is my 12th year as Spotswood's school counselor. The Counseling and Guidance program’s emphasis is developmental and preventive, and is for all students. My role as school counselor is to work with parents/guardians, teachers, and staff to make each child’s school experience as positive as possible. Throughout the school year, I teach classroom guidance lessons on topics such as friendship and getting along with others; study habits and test-taking skills; handling bullies; and stress management.
Small group counseling is provided to work with small groups of children with particular needs. These developmental groups typically focus on issues such as social skills, peer relationships, stress, and other topics as needs arise.
I am also available to work with children individually, as well as to talk with parents/guardians concerning their child. I welcome parents/guardians to conference with me about their child’s individual needs. If a child is experiencing stress at school or at home, I am here to help in any way that I can.
Feel free to contact me at 434-3429 or aadamek@harrisonburg.k12.va.us. It is my pleasure to work with all of the children at Spotswood.
