About Me
Hi there! My name is Teige Kolis (she/her) and I am one of the school counselors in Building 3 (4th-6th grade). I am originally from Minnesota and I have lived in Missoula since 2017. I received my Master’s in Counselor Education from the University of Montana and National Certification from the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC). I love working with students using strengths-based interventions to support social-emotional, academic, and career development. Outside of school, I enjoy trail-running, backpacking, paddle boarding, and reading. Feel free to reach out to me anytime! Looking forward to connecting with you!
