Meet Mrs. McLucas
I have been a staff member at Greenfield since 2007 teaching first grade, fifth grade, English as a Second Language and kindergarten before becoming the counselor. Prior to Greenfield, I worked as a school counselor in Roanoke County and a teacher in Roanoke City and Prince William County. As the counselor at Greenfield, I teach classroom lessons for all grade levels and conduct small groups, lunch groups and do individual counseling. I offer resources for parents, as well. When not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family. My husband and I have four adult children, three of whom are married. We also have three sons still living at home and two rambunctious dogs. I am very excited about my role as the counselor here at Greenfield and look forward to working with your children.
