Mrs. Alicia Brister

Hello! We are proud to welcome you to the Horn Counseling Corner. Your Horn Elementary counselor is Mrs. Alicia Brister. Horn’s elementary counseling program aims to help each child maximize their potential by teaching skills for social, emotional and personal growth. At Horn our entire staff works together every day to promote respect for self and others, good decision-making skills, and personal safety and the counseling program is an integral part of this goal. I have the opportunity to see the students at Horn in a variety of different ways including small groups, classroom guidance lessons and individual sessions. Please feel free to call, send a note, scan the QR Code or click the link below to make an appointment if you have any concerns about your student’s success at school.
