Counseling

Hello! We are proud to welcome you to the Landis Counseling Corner. Your Landis Elementary counselor is Ms. Carmen Johnson. The Landis Elementary counseling program aims to help each child maximize their potential by teaching skills for social, emotional and personal growth. At Landis our entire staff works together every day to promote respect for self and others, good decision-making skills, and personal safety and the counseling program is an integral part of this goal. I have the opportunity to see the students at Landis in a variety of different ways including small groups, classroom guidance lessons and individual sessions.
