School Counselor's Page

Heather Bledsoe

Welcome! My name is Heather Bledsoe, and I am the school counselor at Deer Creek-Lamont Public Schools. I hold a Master’s degree in Educational Administration and am pursuing a Master’s in School Counseling. With over 19 years of experience in education, I have worked as a teacher, instructional coach, and special education director. My passion lies in helping students succeed academically, socially, and emotionally. I lead counseling sessions on conflict resolution, peer relationships, and academic planning while supporting students with their college and career goals.

I look forward to partnering with you to ensure the success and well-being of every student at our school!
