School Counselor

My name is Monica Bonestroo and I am honored to be your child’s School Counselor at Jackson Elementary School. I have worked in the Sheboygan Area School District since 1994. I have taught grades 1, 3 and 4, and have served as a School Counselor for the past 20 years.

I believe that children who feel happy, healthy and safe will learn, and it is my job to make sure all of the students at Jackson School feel happy, healthy and safe. As part of my job, I will be teaching developmental guidance lessons in each classroom on a bi-weekly basis.  I also work to meet the needs of our students through small group and individual counseling. These groups and individual sessions are designed to meet the academic, social and emotional needs of the student. I work very hard to meet each child where they are at and to help them grow in a positive, loving way.

I want your child to have a wonderful school experience and I am happy to help support your child in any way that I can. Please feel free to call or email me at anytime with any questions or concerns. My door is always open. Working together is the best way we can help ensure that your child will succeed.
