Hi! My Name is Tesa De Young! I am excited about being the school counselor at Ladonia Elementary School. I live in Columbus, GA with my husband Jon, our daughter Lily, & our dog, Albus. I enjoy traveling & being with friends and family during my free time. I got my Bachelors of Science in Early Childhood Education in 2012 and my Masters of Education in School Counselor in 2019. In 2024 I completed my Education Specialist Degree in Counseling. This is my 5th year as a school counselor, but my 12th year in education. Before becoming counselor , I spent 7 years as a kindergarten teacher. I truly love working with this age group of students. I am looking forward to this school year. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me. deyoungt@russellcsd.net or 334-468-5805 ext. 30904
