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.
Happy New School Year Everyone!!!!
It has been quite a summer!! I'm so glad to be headed back to school and being reunited with friends and students! August 13th is the First Day of school.
The beginning of school is such as busy anxious time. Students and teachers alike are excited to be here and nervous about what the year may hold. What a wonderful time to begin a KINDNESS KICKOFF!! We all need a little extra support during these first few weeks so we will focus on being kind and supportive of everyone here at Emeline Carpenter Elementary.
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

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.
