My name is Nicole Derby and I am excited to be starting my 6th year as School Counselor! Just a little about myself:  I graduated from Currituck County High School and went on to attend UNC (Go Heels!), Elizabeth City State University, and Capella University where I earned my Master's in School Counseling.  I have four children.  My oldest son just gradauted from UNC Greensboro and just moved to Oregon where he will continue his education.  My daughter is a senior at UNC (Go Heels!)  and my middle son is in his second year on the wrestling team at Carolina!  My youngest son is a sophomore at Currituck High School. (I am somewhat of a Tarheel fan!)

Some of the Programs and Services Provided:

Individual Counseling

Group Counseling

Classroom Social Emotional Lessons

Consultations

504 Coordinator

Lunch Bunch/Newcomers Club

Liaison to Community Resources

I find that many parents and guardians are not exactly sure what the school counselor does so I found a helpful graphic:
