Mrs. Monto

Hello!  I am so excited to be starting my ninth year as a Coltrane-Webb Cougar!  This year I am working with grades kindergarten, first, second and fifth.  I will be visiting classrooms monthly during morning meeting to deliver lessons about character education, careers, friendships and more!  I am also the chair of our PBIS and Positivity Project teams as well as the coordinator for our school safety patrol program. 

As a School Counselor, my job is to help students with emotional regulation, problem solving and conflict resolution skills so that they can be successful - in and out of the classroom! This is accomplished through individual or group counseling and whole classroom lessons. I collaborate with teachers and families to help children work through some struggles that may be impacting their ability to learn. I can make referrals to families for community agency support (housing, food, clothing, etc.) as well as mental health referrals for counseling.  I look forward to a wonderful school year~

Please feel free to contact me directly at 704-260-6162 or via email at kristi.monto@cabarrus.k12.nc.us if you need any support.  You can also make a referral via this form.  

 *If you have a mental health emergency with your child, please reach out to Mobile Crisis - 24 Hour Access/Crisis Hotline at 1-866-275-9552 or Dial 911.
