Meet the Guidance Counselors
Hello Washington Families!!!
Welcome!!! I am a licensed school social worker serving as a school counselor. As an alumnus of the Manitowoc Public School District, it is an honor to be back and serving our community. Most importantly, your student and family. I am here to meet your student and family's needs wherever you may be in the educational journey. Together, we will get through this year and whatever obstacle we are faced with. Thank you for believing in the Washington Middle School Community in supporting your student’s learning.
During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, being out in nature, reading, photography, and volunteering in the community.
Reach me at (920)663-9714 or thaos@mpsd.school!
Mr. Thao "
Know what I love about wolves? They travel in packs, like how we all work closely for and with your children here at Washington.
I'm Ms. Gleason, school counselor, and it will be my pleasure to get acquainted with each of you this school year. I am passionate about self care, inclusivity, strong/healthy communication, and cultivating resilience. I would love to learn more from you as well.
Please reach me at 920 663 9826 or gleasonm@mpsd.school.
