Hello students and parents:
It is with great pleasure that I will serve as your school counselor for the school year 2025-2026. My name is Mr. Maldonado and I have been at Macdonell Elementary for 20 years. I look forward to working together with teachers, administrators, and specially parents to meet the academic and social emotional needs of our students.Â
Throughout the year, I will provide guidance counseling lessons, individual and group counseling sessions, along with parent and student presentations. My goal is for every student to development and improve their social emotional well-being. Every student deserves to come to a learning and nurturing classroom and I will do my best to help all children feel safe and excel in your academics.
Please feel free to call or leave me a message if you ever need my assistance @ 273-4018.Â
