posted September 2, 2021
We are excited to welcome back Cardinal alumna Autumn Deshler, this time as a counselor. If you see her on campus, ask her how things compare to her time as a student here! We’ve asked her some questions so you can get to know her as the school year begins.
Why did you want to teach at Cardinal?
I am a Cardinal alumna. I want to give back to the community that has given me so much and return back to the hallways that I once walked.
What do you like about being a middle school counselor?
I love supporting student mental health. I love that I can be a student's positive role model and the person that they look to when they are struggling through different issues.
What is your favorite part of being a middle school counselor?
My favorite part of being a school counselor is being able to have a positive impact on student's lives as they do on mine.
What is your ultimate goal as a counselor?
My ultimate goal as a school counselor is to have a positive impact on as many students' lives as I can. My ultimate goal is to advocate for students and their mental health.
What do you hope students take away from your work this year?
I hope that students gain the knowledge and feel as if they matter and that they are important.
Fun Facts/Hobbies:
I am a Cardinal alumna from the class of 2017. I was often found in the gym playing basketball and volleyball as a Comet. To this day you can find me helping out on the Cardinal basketball court. Throughout the summer, I love golfing and kayaking with my friends and family. I am a big sports fan and you can find me cheering on my favorite sports team in my free time.
