Welcome to Miss Parrish's Counselor Corner

Greetings!
Thank you for visiting the Counselor's Corner. My name is Miss Parrish, and this is my 8th year at Moxee Elementary. I am here to support the academic, social and emotional needs of all Moxee students! I know we are living in a very stressful time, I will add resources that parents and families may find helpful. I will also add any upcoming events that we will be participating in here at Moxee. 
If you have any questions or other needs, please contact me via email or phone.

We are living in very stressful times. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out for help. There are several resources out there that can support you or your loved ones if they are struggling.
If you see something, say something.
