Counselor's Message

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Lori McDonald and I am the School Counselor. I am so happy to be at Wayland Bonds and part of such a wonderful school and community! As the school counselor, my goal is to help develop and implement a comprehensive guidance program. I am dedicated to serving students, parents, and teachers.
