Counselor's Corner
Welcome to Suncrest Elementary Counselor Corner!
Ms. Lindsay Anderson
Hello, my name is Ms. Lindsay Anderson and I am one of the counselors at Suncrest. Just a little about myself, this is my fifth year as a school counselor, and I have a number of years of experience working with elementary school children. I am originally from Hammond, Indiana which is 20 minutes from Chicago. I went to college at Manchester College in North Manchester, Indiana. After graduating I attended Purdue University Calumet for graduate school to earn my master’s degree in school counseling in May of 2014.
I consider it a privilege to be a member of the Suncrest Eagles staff and community and am very much looking forward to sharing in an exciting and rewarding year with you and your child. As we work together to instill in each child a sense of confidence, self-esteem and responsibility, it is my hope that each will strive for his/her highest potential. If, at any time during the year, you should have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at Suncrest Elementary School at (765) 659-6265 ext.6402 or [email protected].
Please visit our Suncrest Counselor's website for additional information and resources regarding social skills, coping skills, social and emotional learning, anger and impulse control, and other topics.

If you are having trouble explaining COVID-19 to your student, or your student is struggling to understand why we have to stay at home, we recommend you and your student watch the following video. It is a helpful explanation of what is going on in the world right now.
