Hello, my name is Margie Mercado Samuel and I am the School Counselor for all students with Last Names beginning with M-Z.

This is my third year serving as a middle school counselor at CEMS. I bring experience from various roles in education, including working as a dropout prevention counselor, elementary school counselor, and 504 intervention counselor. I am committed to supporting students and families by advocating, educating, modeling, and ensuring equitable opportunities for academic, career, and social-emotional development. I am available on weekdays from 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and look forward to working with you!
