My name is Amy Sexton, and I love being the School Counselor at Lago Vista Elementary!
As the counselor, I am responsible for teaching guidance lessons that focus on the Lago Vista ISD Character Traits, as well as communication skills, problem solving, respecting others, motivation to achieve, goal setting, and much more.
In addition to providing the guidance curriculum, I serve as the campus 504 Plan Coordinator, and collaborate with teachers, parents, administrators, and the community to help ensure the academic, personal, and social well-being of all students. I enjoy working hard to support and promote every student's opportunity to achieve success in school!
I am also available to meet with students and parents as concerns arise. I can work with students individually and in small groups in the areas of self-esteem, social skills, friendship issues, coping skills, crisis intervention, and a variety of other school and family issues. Please feel free to contact me any time if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to getting to know all of the students and families of Lago Vista Elementary!
