My name is Nicole Derby and I am excited to be starting a new 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 amazing children and two crazy chihuahuas!  I love to volunteer at my church, read a good book, and spend the day at the beach!  I am a die hard Tar Heel for life!

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

I look forward to working with you and your students to make this a great school year! 

My schedule this year:

Monday and Tuesday I will be at JES

Wednesday and Thursday I will be at GES

Fridays will alternate!
