Meet Ms. Danielson, the School Counselor at Huachuca Mountain Elementary!
"Hi, I am the school counselor at Huachuca Mountain Elementary. I love being a school counselor because, I love getting to know students and being there for them through the highs and lows of life. I enjoy the opportunity to work with students on the skills they will need to find success and happiness throughout their lives. I love that I am able to maintain a continuous relationship with students during their entire elementary experience; watching them learn and grow to be incredible people. I also like being a part of helping other educators meet the needs of their students. My favorite thing about being a school counselor is that my job is truly about being present for students. Through laughter, tears, frustrations or celebrations; I feel privileged that our students allow and trust me to be an encouraging voice in their lives. "
Thank you for #HelpingStudentsDreamBig

This morning the smoke alarm at Huachuca Mountain went around off due to a high volume of smoke in the kitchen. The staff and students were all evacuated from the building and the fire department was called. Students and staff were outside for approximately 15 minutes before the fire department allowed everyone back in the buildings. The smoke was a result of a piece of kitchen equipment, at no time were flames visible in the area or any immediate threat to student and staff safety. Thank you to all the staff and students for following our fire/smoke alarm procedures and putting safety first. We would also like to thank the Sierra Vista Fire Department for their quick response. All activities and classes have resumed as normal.
