My name is Mrs. Anita Souders.  This is my sixteenth year working for Tuslaw Local Schools.  Prior to this position, I was the K-6 Visual Arts teacher.  I have always enjoyed the arts and had a passion for sharing that joy with students! 

As school counselor I am one more piece to the puzzle, working to meet the social and emotional learning needs of all students.  I facilitate classroom guidance lessons,  counseling small groups, and provide immediate and short-term individual counseling.  Areas of concern may include: school transitions, friendships, conflict resolution, self-esteem, family changes, grief, goal setting, test anxiety, healthy choices, coping skills and more.  I also work closely with teachers, staff and parents to provide support for the academic, career and social-emotional needs of all students.
