Randolph Elementary School

About Mrs. Sherman and Roles of the School Counselor

 
 
My name is Jennifer Sherman, and I am honored to be the School Counselor at Randolph Elementary! Go Thunderbirds!
 
A  few things about me... 
I was born and raised in San Antonio, TX.  I attended the University of the Incarnate Word where I graduated in 2001 with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology.  In 2003, I earned an EC-4 teaching certificate from the University of Texas San Antonio. Then, in 2016, I obtained my Master of Education degree in School Counseling from Lamar University.  I worked as a teacher for 16 years at Ft. Sam Houston Elementary before I joined the Randolph Elementary family in 2019.  I have been married to my husband, Chris, for 14 years.  Together, we have two beautiful daughters, Ava (12) and Lauren (9).  We also have two adorable Basset Hounds named Trixie and Bailey.  
 
Although I am not military affiliated myself, I have proudly served the children of military families throughout my 17-year career in education.  I am always in awe of how how supportive our students are of one another and by their resilience.  
 
Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you may have about the school counseling program, or if there is anything I can do to assist you and your child!  
 
Sincerely, 
Mrs. Sherman
