Gwendolyn Williams

Welcome to our counseling page!

My name is Gwendolyn Williams and I am the School Counselor. This is my first year at Kerrydale and I am excited to see how our students will continue to learn and grow.

I attended Norfolk State University and received my Bachelor's degree in Social Work. I then attended the American College of Education and Norfolk State University receiving Master's Degrees in Elementary Education and Urban Education with a focus in School Counseling. I have been an educator for many years and believe that all children can learn and thrive at high levels when given the proper academic and social emotional support.

If you would like additional information regarding programs/services provided, feel free to contact me at the school at 703-590-1262 between the hours of 9:05 and 4:05 p.m. or through email at [email protected].

 

Mission:

Support the growth of all students in the areas of personal/social, academic, and career development to ensure each student is able to reach their highest potential. The Kerrydale Elementary School Counseling Department will collaborate with administration, staff and families within the community to ensure that each student receives a world-class education.

Vision:

Allow each student the opportunity to reach their fullest potential and to become lifelong learners. Through the help of the comprehensive school counseling program, Kerrydale students will be able to be reflective, persistent, and brave to gain the skills necessary to SOAR above expectations and have positive, lifelong impacts on our school and community.
