Ms. Stephanie Brunner, 6th grade School Counselor Welcome back to school! I am thrilled to be the 6th grade counselor for the 2009-2010 school year. Being part of the transition from elementary school into middle school is a great honor! This year I will be working with the 6th grade students on their emotional, social, and academic concerns and development. I will be able to aid in the development of their life skills and make this stepping stone in their lives as smooth as possible. I am here to assist with any concerns or issues that arise through out the year. I am going to work closely with the students, parents, teachers, and administration to allow for a united and progressive year to come. 6th grade is a fantastic, yet scary time for many students. My door is ALWAYS open to any challenges that students are facing. It is my hopes this year that each student will grow socially and academically with the involvement of my care and assistance. Please feel free to contact me via email at sbrunner@montville.net or by phone at (973) 331-7140 ex 231. I look forward to hearing from you. Hopes for a wonderful first year at Lazar Middle School!
