Welcome Eagles!!!!! 

I am Mrs. Rue, your School Counselor! This is my second year at Monroe Elementary (MOE), home of Regal the Eagle. At Monroe we SOAR to new heights by teaching our students to be Safe, On task, Act Responsibly, and Show Respect. I thoroughly enjoy working with our students, and partnering with you in your student's education.

Our students are learning! In Kindergarten through Second Grade, our students are learning about safety when I teach our Second Step: Child Protection Unit. Our third through fifth graders are learning Bullying Prevention skills when I teach the Second Step: Bullying Prevention Unit. Our students also learn throughout the year as I collaborate with teachers for need-based lessons on topics like kindness, patience, and respect. The School Counseling program at Monroe Elementary is aligned with the School Counseling standards of  Everett Public Schools and ASCA National model.   

About me:  I've worked as an education professional for over 11 years, starting as a paraprofessional and substitute teacher in a high-needs school setting. In addition, I am going into my 5th year as a school counselor. Prior to working as a school counselor, I've served in Crisis Management Roles and Academic Counselor roles at university level. I love spending quality time with my family and my garden. I am honored to have the opportunity to support our students at Monroe Elementary!

 

Please feel free to reach out if I can be of any support. 

Note** I have uploaded quite a few resources to support our community during these times. I am happy to help 😊
