Hello, Daniels Middle School Parents and Students!
My name is Christina Rush, and I am so excited to be working at Daniels for my 10th school year! I am a native of Raleigh, NC and attended East Carolina University (Secondary English Education degree) and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (Master's in School Counseling). I consider myself a proud member of the "Pirate Nation." My husband, my sister, my brother-in-law, and my parents are all ECU graduates! My husband and I have two lovely children, Chloe James and Braxton, who are both students in the Wake County Public School System. My educational philosophy is that all children have worth and dignity, and should be treated as the valuable persons that they are. I work with my students the entire three years that they are at Daniels, and I love to remind them that as they travel to each grade, I get to go with them! My role as a school counselor is to partner with all of my students, as well as with their parents. I look forward to continuing to work with my students in the academic, personal, and social/emotional domains; nurturing the development of the "whole child" is the perspective that I believe is most important.
This particular school year will be the 3rd year that I have worked with this group of current students. They are wonderful! I look forward to providing my students with all of the support and information they will need to register successfully for high school, as we bring our three year partnership to completion. I will post high school related updates often. Thank you for partnering with me in having a wonderful 2016-17 school year!
