Hello! My name is Tracie Kroenert and I am excited about beginning my second year in Aubrey!   I am so delighted to be here and eager to meet each of you!  This is my 25th  year in education and my sixth year as a counselor!  I have been a counselor at all grade levels, but secondary is my passion. 

Before becoming a counselor, I taught all elementary subjects and was a library media specialist.  I have also taught Middle School and High School Science, Gifted and Talented, English Language Arts, and Social Studies. Additionally, I attended Lamar University where I received my Master's Degree in Educational Leadership and Northeastern State University where I received my Bachelor's Degree in Sociology and Education. I have been married to my husband, Marc, for 30 years and we have 3 grown daughters, Megann, Bethanie and Hannah and two sweet little fur babies named Brodie and Kenzie. I also have a sweet four-year-old grandson named Mason and many grand-pets!   I am so grateful to get to be here at Aubrey this year and I know it is going to be an amazing year!  Feel free to reach out and say hi anytime!  I would love to hear from you!  My goal is to help every student to be successful and empower them to set and reach the goals they set for themselves, academically, socially and emotionally!
