Welcome! I am Janet Spencer, one of Arcola's two school counselors. This year, the majority of my days will be spent working with Arcola's second through fifth grade students. In addition to classroom guidance lessons, I provide individual and small group counseling. I also consult with parents and teachers to help students achieve their academic, personal/social and career goals. I am excited to begin my twelfth year as an educator in Loudoun County Public Schools at Arcola Elementary. Previously, I was a counselor at Legacy Elementary and Sugarland Elementary Schools. I also have taught fifth grade in Loudoun County and kindergarten in Hanover County, a suburb of Richmond, Virginia. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education and a Master's degree in Counseling from Virginia Tech.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. I can be reached by phone at (703)957-4392 or by email janet.spencer@lcps.org.
