Guidance
Welcome to our new guidance counselor!
My name is Alison Memoli and I feel that it is an honor to serve the amazing children, families, and staff at JFES. As your child's school counselor, I believe that children come first! I work together with teachers, parents, and the community to help all students achieve personal, social, and academic success. As a professional school counselor, I am certified with a master's degree in school counseling (South Carolina State University) and a master's degree in social work (University of South Carolina).
