Hello, Oberlin Middle School Parents and Students!

I am so excited to be working with your 8th Grade students for the 2025-26 school year! 

My educational philosophy is that all children have worth and dignity, and should be treated as the valuable persons that they are. I work with my students the entire three years that they are at Oberlin, and as I love to remind them -  as they travel to each grade, I get to go with them! My role as a School Counselor is to partner with all of my students, as well as with their parents.  I look forward to continuing to work with my students in the academic, personal, and social/emotional domains; nurturing the development of the "whole child" is the perspective that I believe is most important.

We have a very busy school year on the horizon, as we begin the task of preparing for the high school transition. I have really enjoyed partnering with the students (and you!) for the last two years, and I am excited to accompany them for the culmination of their middle school journey. Please do not hesitate to contact me, should you have questions or concerns.

In partnership,

Christina Rush
