Hello, my name is Kelsey Schweitzer and I am the School Psychologist at Netherwood Knoll Elementary and Prairie View Elementary. I am excited about working with the learners and families in this community.  Before coming to Oregon, I worked as a psychologist for 4 years in Milwaukee Public Schools, and for 3 years in the West Allis-West Milwaukee School District.  I am an advocate and resource for the social, emotional, and academic needs of our learners, and work collaboratively with school staff and families to support those needs.  Together, we can identify the strategies, tools, and supports needed for all learners to succeed!

Hello! My name is Melissa Thorson, and I am excited to be a school psychologist at Prairie View Elementary.  I am dedicated to supporting the success of students academically, socially, behaviorally, and emotionally. My love of working with and helping students is driven by working with others to help create and provide a safe, healthy, and supportive learning environment that strengthens connections between home, school, and the community for all students.  I have previously worked as a school psychologist in the Monona Grove and Sun Prairie school districts. I am so thankful for the opportunity to work in such an amazing school and district with such enthusiastic and caring students, staff and parents!
