School Adjustment Counselor

At Fausey Elementary School, social-emotional learning is both valued and cultivated. Through small group counseling, individual sessions with students, and classroom lessons I am able to provide important social emotional support.

Before becoming a counselor, I was a special education teacher for 16 years; 11 of them in West Springfield. This will be my 5th year as a SAC! Every child will do well if they can. If they can’t, it’s our job to help them build the skills they need to thrive!

Please reach out to me should you have any questions or concerns related to the school counseling program at Fause Elementary School at smessier@wsps.org
