Meet the School Counselor

Hello! My name is Mrs. Bitten I am the School Counselor at Elementary School #8 .I have been in Belleville School District for 6 years.

 

My  decision to get my degree in School Counseling stemmed from the passion I have for helping children grow and become successful individuals. I find it gratifying to be a supportive role in helping students through challenging situations that they may face. Being an important part of students’ education and their social emotional development is something I very much take pride in.

 

As a school counselor I will provide school-based/ short term individual and small group counseling. I will also be visiting the classrooms to present lessons on various topics through our new RethinkEd SEL curriculum.

 

I look forward to working with all of the students and families this upcoming school year!
