Paige Everson -- Counselor for students in grades K, 2, 4

My father was in the U.S. Army, so I traveled and lived in many places when I was growing up.  I attended high school in Wiesbaden, Germany and lived in Zaire (The Congo), Africa as well as many U.S. states while in school.  I graduated from Texas A&M University with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education & Special Education and a Master's degree in School Counseling.  I was a teacher for ten years in Texas and New Jersey and I have been a counselor since 2000.  I am married to Butch and have two sons, Jared and Zachary. I enjoy traveling, gardening, and spending time with my family.  I love my job as a counselor because I get to work with terrific kids in a great school!

ANDREA COUCOULAS-KNIGHT-- Counselor for students in grades 1, 3, 5  

I graduated from Elizabethtown College in Pennsylvania with a BA in Elementary Education & a minor in Psychology. I played soccer & swam on the collegiate level, but my favorite memory during college was serving as a Resident Assistant for three years, an early sign of how my passion was to help others.  After college, I drove from my hometown of Bridgewater, New Jersey to Raleigh, North Carolina, where I taught in Wake County for five years as a third-grade teacher, at Powell G.T. Magnet Elementary. I completed my Masters in School Counseling in 1996 from North Carolina State University. I have two children, Alexander and Ann Marie.  I enjoy travelingMain Page (HOME) Main Page (HOME) Main Page (HOME) , running, swimming, playing tennis, and I love to collect eggs daily from my chickens! I am thrilled to be at Drive Elementary as a counselor & to be working with Paige Everson.
