5th & 8th Grade Counselor: Ms. Angela McNamara
Hello Tigers! My name is Angela McNamara (you can call me Ms. Mac) and I am your 5th and 8th grade counselor. My background is in teaching. I taught at all different levels for 12 years before becoming a school counselor. Meeting students where they are and helping them to feel confident in all areas of their lives is my passion. I am here to support both students and their families as we navigate the middle school years together!
When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my husband, two daughters, and three dogs 🙂. I love reading good books, spending lots of time at the beach and going to as many yoga classes as I can.
6th &7th Grade Counselor: Mr. Dan Israel
I am so happy to join the College Prep team as your new counselor. I have a Masters in Counseling Psychology from Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. I moved to San Diego in 2024 from Boulder, where I was a Middle School counselor and therapist. Last year I worked at Point Loma High School as a counselor. This is the work I love. I believe in supporting each student for who they are and meeting them in the moment, to foster growth academically and emotionally.
When I am out of school, I enjoy skiing, hiking, spending time at the beach, rooting for the Padres, and watching hockey. I also love to cook and eat, paint, garden, and see live music with friends. I am so excited to be here and be your new counselor. Go Tigers!!
