Welcome to Medeiros Counseling

Hello, my name is Ms. Tovar and I would like to introduce myself as the School Counselor at Medeiros Elementary. This is my second year at Medeiros. I look forward to working with you and your child, and I will make every effort to ensure your child receives as much support as possible. The counseling program at Medeiros includes many school-wide programs and services to help support your students here at school.
