Meet the LMES Counselors
Meet Mrs. Tanesky
I joined Lafayette Meadows as a full time school counselor in 2013. Prior to my position at Lafayette Meadows, I had two years of experience working as a long term substitute elementary counselor for Whitley County and East Noble Schools. I received my bachelors in psychology and my masters in school counseling from the University of Saint Francis in Fort Wayne. I was a social worker with Network for Safe Families and SCAN for 7 years prior to becoming a counselor. I love working with families and children. I have two daughters and we enjoy camping, kayaking, and road trips. My favorite part of being a school counselor is seeing my students overcome obstacles and succeed at school. I am looking forward to another great year of working with students! I will be working with grades K-3 this year.
