Hi, my name is Adria Young, and I am the School Social Worker. I am starting my 8th year with Aurora Public Schools. I started working as the School Social Worker with Edna and John W. Mosley P-8 when we first opened our doors in the 2015/2016 school year! Before coming to Mosley P-8, I worked as a co-facilitator of the Social Emotional Learning Pilot Program in an elementary school and with the Child Development Centers (preschools) in APS. I was also the School Social Worker at Altura Elementary School for the 2014-2015 school year. In my free time, I love to play my guitar and sing in my two choirs, as well as get outside and hike, workout at my pilates studio, swim and spend time with my husband and son. The thing I am most excited about for this school year is to see how our school will continue to provide a loving, supportive and challenging education for our wonderful students. I'm excited to see our students continue to build academic resilience and social-emotional strength. My job is to accelerate learning for every APS student, every day. I do my job by providing opportunities for children to build and improve their emotional intelligence so that they are successful socially and academically and to be a safe and trusting adult for children to come to when they are in need of support. My community needs me to do my job.

Hi, I'm Brittany Greiert (she/her/hers), although most students call me Dr. G. I am a nationally certified school psychologist and licensed psychologist and am excited to be joining the Mosley team for the 2021-2022 school year! This is my 7th year working for APS and I am a member of our district crisis response team, our school psychology leadership team, and provide clinical supervision to pre- and post-doctorate psychology graduate students. I received my B.A. in Advertising from Michigan State University, my M.A. in Psychology from Pepperdine University, and my Ph.D. from the University of Denver. Previously, I have been an adjunct professor and clinical supervisor for the University of Denver. Additionally, I provide trainings at local and national conferences around advocacy for mental health in schools. I utilize a strengths-approach in my work with students and integrate trauma-informed strategies and evidence-based therapeutic techniques. I am passionate about supporting the social emotional well being of all children and working with families and the community to support the whole child. In my free time, I love to hike with my toddler, husband and 100lb dog, dig into a good book, and travel.

My name is Karen McBroom and I have been a part of the counseling team at Mosley for three years. I love my job and the students I get to work with! Before becoming a counselor I worked for ten years in education as an art teacher and then went on to get my Masters in Counseling from Adams State University.

I work with students individually, in small groups, and conduct in class social emotional lessons. The following are some examples of the topics and skills I work with students on: social/friendship skills, engagement, emotional regulation and much more. I also connect families with outside resources and supports when needed.

My job is to accelerate learning for every APS student, every day. I do my job by collaborating with parents, staff and community to support students in developing social, emotional, academic and 21st century skills needed to reach their full potential. My community needs me to do my job.
