Mrs. Rachel Chott has been in education for seven years and has spent the last six of those years as our K-8 grades counselor. In addition to the exceptional work that she does with our elementary and middle school students in her counseling program, Mrs. Chott also helps to plan the annual Career Day for 6-12 grade students, organizes middle school career exploration trips, and serves on the middle school Student Success Team, PBIS Team, and the district CTA Committee.
Mrs. Chott shared “I’ve always loved working with kids and helping others, so being a school counselor truly feels like the perfect fit for me. One of my favorite parts of the job is building relationships with students and getting to know each of them individually. I feel really lucky to be part of such a caring school community and to work alongside staff who share the same passion for helping students grow and thrive!”
Mrs. Courtney Hasekamp began her career in School Counseling at Harrisburg High School three years ago. She brings a wealth of knowledge and skill to our high school students and staff as she provides guidance and support to assist students with academic and personal challenges and facilitates quality programming that helps our high school students succeed in school and in life.
In addition to the numerous responsibilities that come with being a high school counselor, Mrs. Hasekamp also teaches a College and Career Readiness Course, plans and facilitates our annual Career Day, and is our high school A+ Coordinator. .
“Mrs. Hasekamp does a tremendous job as our High School Counselor. She is always there for students when they need someone to talk to, and she works tirelessly to ensure that all the needs of our students are being met.” - Kyle Fisher, high school Principal
Thank you, Mrs. Chott and Mrs. Hasekamp, for the dedicated work that you do to ensure that the needs of all of our students and staff are met each and every day. We are so incredibly fortunate to have your time, talents, and innumerable skills available to our district. #BulldawgPride #NSCW26 #NationalSchoolCounselingWeek #SchoolCounselor
