Health and Wellness Team
The Health and Wellness Team collaborates with school staff and families to enhance student achievement by addressing barriers to learning. Focusing on students' physical, emotional, and social wellness needs are part of a comprehensive approach to academic success.
The role of the Health/Wellness Team is to work collaboratively to support teachers, students and their families. Meetings are intended to develop communication between the team and families to address student social/emotional issues. The Health/Wellness Team can give families appropriate resources for support. The team can help determine intervention plans, monitor student progress and follow-up as needed.
Bandelier’s Health/Wellness Team consists of:
- Asst. Principal: Sarah Matosian
- School Counselor: Lisa Wilson
- School Nurse: Deborah Hill
- Classroom Teacher of referred student
The community counselor (contracted with APS) may also be included in meetings as deemed appropriate. Teachers typically refer students to Health/Wellness, however, if parents have concerns about their student, please contact me to schedule a meeting. Referral forms are available outside my office. Please return forms to my mailbox or to me directly.
