HELPING STUDENTS TODAY FOR A BETTER TOMORROW
ABOUT
My name is Jake Schultz, I am the school counselor at Kegonsa Elementary. I believe that every child has the capability to succeed and it is my mission to help each child reach their full potential. I devote my practice to creating a sense of balance and purpose in every student. I focus on the importance of mental, physical, emotional and social health during all of my interactions with students. I have my undergraduate degree from UWSP in Psychology and my Masters in the Arts of Counseling from Lakeland Universaity. I am passionate about wellness, family and living life in the present moment.
​
As Kegonsa's school counselor I teach bi-weekly Social Emotional lessons to every classroom. I also meet with students individually and in groups on a variety of topics ranging from anxiety, family & peers issues and simply getting through the riggers of daily life. I have been apart of our District Equity team and used the Restorative Circle format in classrooms to discuss topics of race, acceptance, bullying and much more. I am also a part of Kegonsa's PBIS team, Leadership Team and am our Play60 advisor
​
I am married to my wonderful wife Alex for 10 years and we have a 1 year old named Brooks. We love to be outside and enjoy nature as much as we can.
