Hello, Welcome to Parkview Middle School.  I'm part of the counseling team with Trudy Egli.  This year, I serve 6th grade students on both teams.  I enjoy working in such a great school environment with this age of students!

Here's my background:
Simpson College - BA Elementary Education
Iowa State University - MA School Counseling
'82-'87 Sioux Center, Ia. 6th grade teacher
'87-'90 Neveln, 6th grade teacher
'90-'92 Northwest Elementary, 5th grade teacher
'92-'99 Southeast Elementary, Counselor
'99-present Parkview, Counselor
Coaching: Boys & Girls Cross Country and Track, Football, and Softball

My wife, Jill, is a 1st grade teacher at Southeast Elementary.  We have three daughters; two AHS graduates and one still in the Ankeny Schools.  So, I guess my best credentials come from the six years they were the age of our student here!

I look forward to the opportunity of helping students and parents navigate this special time of life called middle school.  You can contact anytime throughout the school day at 965-9640 or email me at steve.arneson@ankenyschools.org
