What Does An Elementary School Counselor/ Social Worker Do?

My life outside of school

Hello, my name is Carrie Boedeker and I am the School Social Worker at Lakeview Elementary School!  I have been a School Social Worker in Campbell County School District working at Lakeview since 1994.  I received my MA from the University of Wyoming in Educational Leadership in 1997.  My undergraduate degree is in Social Work also from the University of Wyoming which I received in 1991.  I am licensed through the Wyoming Professional Teaching Standards Board as a Certified School Social Worker.  I am also certified to coach volleyball, swimming, tennis, and track.  

I am a Wyoming native originally from Lander.  My mother still lives in the same house that I grew up in, and my parent's ranch is on the Wind River Indian Reservation.  

I have been the School Social Worker at Lakeview since 1994!  Lakeview wasn't always as big as it is now so I have also job shared with Campbell County High School, Recluse, Little Powder, and Cottonwood Elementary while working at Lakeview.  Before coming to Lakeview, I worked as a School Social Worker at Grant Elementary School in Glenrock, Wyoming, for three years.  

When I'm not at school I enjoy spending time with my family  and friends, traveling, hiking, camping, participating in most sports, working out, fishing, hunting, baking, reading, and having fun!
