Ms. Arvello. I am the Certified School Counselor for K-5th grade at Emeline Carpenter Elementary. This is my 9th year at Carpenter. Just like every other year, I am so excited to see everyone!!
Please feel free to contact me with questions or concerns regarding your children and their school experiences. My email address is darvello@nacisd.org or telephone number 569-5070 ext.6117.
My mission as a student advocate is to provide a comprehensive guidance program that will assist students in acquiring the skills, knowledge, and attitudes needed to become effective students, responsible citizens, and lifelong learners.
What a relaxing and fun Spring Break!!!!
We are back and ready for the downhill slide to the end of this school year! The air gets warmer, the sun shines brighter and the days get longer! Many students get involved with sports or just playing outside longer in the neighborhood!! Please help ensure your child gets the rest he/she needs to be successful each day.
We have been through many exciting times this year. Now our testing season is coming close. Here are the STAAR test dates: April 8th-- Reading STAAR 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades
April 14th- Science STAAR-5th grade
April 21st-- Math STAAR-3rd, 4th, and 5th grades
If you have any questions or concerns about school and your child, please do not hesitate to call your child's teacher or me. I will be happy to help in any way that I can!!
Thank you!!!! ---- Ms. Arvello, M.A., LPC-S, CSC

“In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment.” ( Dweck, 2015) Use these videos to help develop a growth mindset.
This story explains responsibility. Watch with your child(ren) and discuss some responsibilities they have at home and at school.
Enjoy it together!
