Ms. Roy

Where did you grow up and go to school?

I grew up in Narragansett and attended Narragansett High School. I then attended Assumption University for my undergraduate degree and Providence College for my master's degree.

Have you worked at another school before?

Yes, I was a third-grade teacher at Father Holland Elementary School. After college, I worked in Burriville and Coventry. After completing my master's, I was hired here.

What inspired you to become a guidance counselor?

I never thought that I would be a guidance counselor. I went to school for elementary education, and a professor during my master's forced me to do a guidance internship. I loved it, and if I hadn't been pushed to do the internship, I may have never become a guidance counselor.

What is your favorite part of working at WHS?
My favorite part of working at WHS is working with students and being able to help them, especially in college and career planning.

What are some of your hobbies and interests outside of school?

I love to shop, workout, and bike ride!

What motivates you to get up in the morning?

My job, which I love. I am a morning person and am always up early!

What is your greatest accomplishment?

My greatest accomplishment is my kids.

What is something that most students at WHS do not know about you?

I was a gymnast and danced in the state ballet.

What is on the top of your bucket list?

To travel. I've been to Europe, but I want to explore it more and visit new places!

What are your upcoming plans for the summer?

Lots of scheduling!
