Hello!
Hello!
My name is Ariel Davis, and I am the school counselor at Silver Lake Elementary. This is my 12th year in education and my 4th year as a school counselor! I plan to use this website as a house for information and resources for our families. Please never hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. You can also fill out the counseling form if you would like for me to meet with your child. I am so excited for this school year and getting to work with the amazing students at Silver Lake!
The Counselor Corner section has all of the latest news, blog updates, etc.
ALL students are capable of reaching their highest potential!

As the school counselor of Silver Lake Elementary, it is my goal to empower students to be their best selves so that they can be a bright light. Through guidance and support of students' social and emotional well-being, they will realize their inner strength and develop resiliency to effectively and courageously overcome any obstacle they face in their personal and academic life.
