Greetings!

I am excited to introduce myself as the new school counselor for Beaufort Middle School. My name is Nate Stevens and I am thrilled to join such a close knit community and supportive learning environment!

My approach to counseling focuses on creating a safe and inclusive space where students can explore their interests, overcome challenges, and build resilience. I believe that every student has the potential to succeed, and I am here to support them in reaching their full potential.

In my role, I will be collaborating with teachers, parents, and community partners to enhance the overall well-being of our students. Whether it’s through individual counseling, group workshops, or classroom lessons using our district’s Be Calm curriculum; my goal is to equip students with the tools they need to navigate their educational journey and life beyond school.

I am eager to get to know each of you and to work together to make this a positive and enriching year for our students. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions, concerns, or just to say hello.  If you need to set up an appointment for your student, please use the google form here: https://forms.gle/vySjvxaYF1p2UPYB6

If you need to get in to contact with me you can always email me at Nathaniel.Stevens@Carteretk12.org

I look forward to a great school year with you and your students!
