Hi! I'm Ms. Britez, the general education school social worker for PS #1. I work with students from grades, kindergarten thru 6th grade. I talk to students when they are dealing with personal or social issues and are feeling emotions that may seem difficult to handle. At times we may experience feelings like sadness, anger or anxiety. These feelings may feel overwhelming and you may not know how express or cope with those feelings in a healthy way. I'm here to help you manage your emotions and process some of those feelings.

My website is designed to assist in identifying different strategies for managing emotions. These tools will provide helpful outlets and practices for when life gets hard. However, I encourage you to always speak with parent/guardian or a trusted adult when you find yourself having a difficult time.

If you wish to speak to me, I have included my contact information below.

I wish you all a HAPPY SCHOOL YEAR!
