I'm happy you are here! If you are new to Freeman, my name is, Erika Welch and I am one of the school counselors here at Freeman. I have been a part of CFBISD my whole life as I am a product of CFBISD. I attended Central Elementary, Dewitt Perry Middle School, and graduated from R.L.Turner High School in 1995. I started working as a teacher at Creekview High School in 2002. While teaching I began working on my master's degree in counseling in 2006 at SMU. I was brought on at Freeman in the fall of 2008 as the school counselor.
I am working to stay connected and available to my students and families as we adjust to all the new ways of living. I hope that you will find the information and the resources I have linked helpful. I will continue to update and add new things so check back often. If you have questions, please reach out to me by email or phone using the contact information below. If you reach out through email please include your name, your student's name and your phone number.
It is always important to take proper care of ourselves, but when things around us have changed how we live our daily life-- it becomes even MORE important. Below you will find links to some online resources that are available to you and your children.
