My name is Zamarit Simpkins and I am the 8th grade counselor for students with the last name beginning with the letters L-Z. This is my first year at Belmont Ridge Middle School and I am excited to be joining this wonderful community. This is my 15th year as a school counselor and I have had the opportunity to work as a school counselor in both Loudoun and Fairfax County in addition to two international schools in Malaysia and The Netherlands.
