My name is Susan Beavers and I am the counselor at Sour Lake Elementary. Before that I was a second grade teacher for many, many years.

First and foremost, I feel that it is my responsibility to help your child get the best possible education. A good education includes not only learning to read, write, and do math, but learning good social skills. This means, among other things, learning how to get along with other children, making good decisions, controlling anger, and accepting responsibility. I do this by teaching character education classes. Although these skills are taught at home, I hope to supplement that learning.

I also help students who are facing particular difficulties. Such family disruptions as an illness, death, or divorce affect children at school. If your family is experiencing anything like this, please let me know.

It is important to remember that school personnel and parents working together are a winning combination for children. All children deserve to be winners. Together, we can help your child realize this goal.

If I can be of any help to you, please call 981-6440 ext. 3208. If I am not available, please leave a message and I will return your call as soon as possible.
