Role of the School Counselor at TMSE
At TMSE, I serve on several different committees:
Schools of Character, Leadership Team, Multi-Tiered supports team (MTSS), and the IB Implementation Team. I also teach counseling lessons once a month and conduct lunch bunches weekly. I meet with students individually as needed or referred to me. I attend monthly MTSS meetings with our teaching teams. I also serve as the 504 Coordinator for TMSE.
School Services Available
Journey Program: The Tuscaloosa City School System has a strong partnership with Indian Rivers Behavioral Health. Through this relationship, we have a mental health therapist, Mrs. Brittney Joiner, that visits our school one day each week. For more information or to seek a referral to this program,
please email Mrs. Angel at langel@tusc.k12.al.us or call 205-759-3655.
504 Coordinator: I serve as the 504 coordinator for Tuscaloosa Magnet Elementary. What is a 504 you may ask?
A 504 plan ensures that students with physical or mental disabilities have equal access to educational programs and activities in public schools and federally funded private schools. It is designed to remove barriers to learning by providing accommodations, supports, or services tailored to a student’s needs, without altering what they are expected to learn.
