Hello Families -

As your Student Support Provider, I am part of a team at Freshwater School K-8 that supports students by assisting with academic, social and personal development. I meet with students one-on-one or in small groups. I also provide family members with additional support such as information, and community resources, as well as a safe place to talk. My parent support group meets every Tuesday morning at 8:30 in room 15 or by appointment. Please email ashears@freshwatersd.org if you would like to set up a time to visit. Please keep checking this site for updates! :)
