Ms. Mello, Law’s School Psychologist and Ms. Meyer-Farrell, Law’s full-time Social Worker work together behind the scenes to help make Law what it is today. 

Meyer-Ferrell, along with Ms. Bernardo, Law’s part-time Social Worker, talk to students to help them encounter different issues. Mello meets with students for counseling and evaluations. 

“I talk to students for a variety of reasons including stress, depression, anxiety, social skills, executive functioning, grief, and other troubles that happen to them during their teenage years,” Meyer-Farrell said. “Together we work together to come up with ways to help ease their feelings.”

These support staff members love their job but more importantly love the people they work with. 

“I really enjoy the conversations I have with high school students,” Mello said. “It is a lot of fun to watch them grow personally and in their academics.”

Principal Mr. Darcy works with Mello and Ms. Meyer-Farrell and could not be happier with the work they have done at Law.

“Ms. Meyer-Farrell is simply the best Social Worker I’ve ever worked with,” Mr. Darcy said. “Ms. Mello is a wonderful person and School Psychologist.”

Darcy truly believes that both staff members are the stars behind the scenes. 

“Ms. Meyer-Farrell also works so well with every staff member in our building and is just an incredible person to be around,” Darcy said. “Ms. Mello meets with students individually to ensure they are supported, communicates with parents/guardians, and runs reports that are very important for staff.”
