Meet Our School Counselor 
Hello Fallsmead Families! My name is Rebecca Kotok and I am thrilled to be the Elementary School Counselor at Fallsmead Elementary School. I am here to help teachers, children, and families identify, address, and mitigate social emotional challenges so that all students can thrive academically and socially. Throughout the year, the Fallsmead comprehensive counseling program includes:
Classroom Lessons and Classroom Meetings
I love visiting the classrooms! I teach lessons in each class as often as my schedule permits. Topics include expressing feelings, managing conflicts, personal body safety, and developing perseverance.
Individual and Small Group Counseling
Short-term individual and small group counseling may cover topics such as grief, anger management, or conflict resolution. Referrals to the counseling office are initiated based on student, teacher, or parent concerns.
Lunch Bunches
Lunch Bunches are a fun way for me to get to know the students in an informal setting.
I look forward to working with all Fallsmead families. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me at Rebecca_S_Kotok@mcpsmd.org
