Counseling

Hello, my name is Mr. Parnes, I am the middle school counselor at A2 STEAM. I have been with A2 STEAM since the 2015-16 school year. My goal is to provide you with helpful information that will make middle school more manageable for both students and parents.

I grew up in Ann Arbor and attended: Lawton, Slauson, Pioneer, and Community. I received my BA from University of Michigan where I studied Psychology. I received my MA in School Counseling from Eastern Michigan University. Previously, I have been a counselor at CHS, Tappan, Clague, and Slauson. I am a gaming enthusiast and run an after school "Tabletop Gaming Club". I have pet cats and dogs. I really enjoy cooking (and eating) new recipes. I moved to the A2 STEAM neighborhood so I am a part of the community!
