Adjustment Counselor's Corner

Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),

My name is Hannah Melendez and I am the school adjustment counselor at John Ashley School. My job is to help all of our kindergarten students succeed academically as well as socially and emotionally.

In order for all children to grow in their social and emotional skills, I spend time in the classrooms supporting every student in our school. At times, I will work with individual and small groups of students to practice positive school behaviors and age-appropriate social skills. We focus on activities around topics of social skills, feelings and emotions, problem solving, personal safety, peers, and how we cope with big emotions. The curriculum used in my work is The Zones of Regulation and Second Step, Child Protection Unit.

If you have any questions about this work or concerns about your child’s social emotional growth and would like to speak with me, please do not hesitate to contact me by email or phone

T: (413) 264-2575.

I am excited to work with your child!
Sincerely,

Hannah Melendez, School Adjustment Counselor
