Mrs. Castillo

I am happy to be back for my 6th year as a school counselor at Brinton Elementary. I was born and raised in Arizona. I attended the University of Arizona for my bachelor’s degree in psychology. Then, I attended Arizona State University for my master’s degree in counseling, with a focus on school counseling. I enjoy hiking and being surrounded by nature, traveling, and dancing. I also enjoy relaxing at home with my husband and toddler son. Most of all, I enjoy working with elementary students and seeing their growth throughout the school year. Please feel free to call, email or stop by, I am glad to assist in any way that I can. [More...]
