Dear Francis Patton Primary School family:

Greetings!  My name is Melvina Warren.  I am excited to introduce myself to you as your new School Counselor for this upcoming 2020-2021 school year.  This is my 18 year as a Professional School Counselor and I can’t wait for you to get to know me and to work with your amazing students!  As the School Counselor, my actions will continually be motivated by a student first attitude - your student and their success inside and outside of the classroom is of the upmost importance to myself and Francis Patton.

ALL ABOUT ME!!

  • I am a wife and mother of a daughter and a son;
  • I love exercising especially lifting weights and in my earlier years, I played netball and softball for Bermuda;
  • I love spending time with my family;
  • I pride myself on respecting others privacy as I am a private person myself;
  • My favorite TV channels are watching anything on Netflix and Lifetime.

Primary school is a time when students develop attitudes concerning school, self, peers, social groups and family.  It is also a time when students develop decision-making skills and character values.  As a Professional School Counselor, my primary responsibility is to promote the academic, personal and social development of all students by taking a preventative approach.  This is delivered as I operate through a comprehensive school counseling program under four (4) components: 1. Classroom Guidance; 2. Individual Planning; 3. Responsive Services; 4. System Support.  In addition, there will be times that I will provide guidance to students in individual and/or groups sessions as I address specific life situations or emotional issues that may interfere with school adjustment.  In some cases, I may recommend that additional help be sought outside of the school.  During the 1st school term, I will be scheduling zoom meetings with every P1 parent to conduct the P1 Counselor screening and every P5 parent and their child to conduct their Career Planning Meeting. 

I am looking forward to working closely with all of you and if you have any questions or concerns for me to address, I can be easily reached via email at mwarren1@moed.bm or on the school’s main line at 478-3303 ext. 2213.

Sincerely,

MELVINA L. WARREN
