Ms. Anticoli

Hello Liberty Families! My name is Kaitlyn Anticoli and I am so excited to be one of your school counselors this year. This is my first year as a school counselor at Liberty and I am already amazed at how welcoming our community is. I will be working with Kindergarten, 2nd, and 3rd grade. My role as a school counselor includes classroom counseling lessons, small group facilitation, and individual support based on students’ needs. I strive to develop an inclusive environment where all students feel safe and supported in their academic, career, social, and emotional development. 

I earned my bachelor’s degree from Canisius University and received my master’s degree in school counseling from the University at Buffalo. My favorite things are running, reading, doing yoga, and traveling. I can’t wait for a great year at Liberty!
