Hello and welcome! 

My name is Deanna Patterson and I am the Olive Drive Counselor for the 2023-24 school year. This is my 17^th year in education. In the past, I worked as a classroom teacher for 9 years and I was the school counselor at Norris Middle School for 7 years. I currently hold a clear Pupil Personnel Services Credential and a clear Teaching Credential.

My role is to serve as an advocate for all students and to provide a wide range of services to the school community. I am available daily to work with you and your student. If you’d like to talk about school-based mental health services or if you have questions about your student’s academic progress, social development, or their future path, you can reach out via email or phone. I look forward to a wonderful school year and to working with each of you.
