Hi, I'm Barbara, the Family Advocate here at Echo Lake. I offer support and services to help students and families find any resources they may need to address non-academic challenges. Families sometimes find themselves faced with basic needs such as food, shelter, clothing, or financial assistance. Sometimes emotional support is needed. I am happy to meet with students or their families to discuss any concerns and to work with them towards a solution. My office hours are flexible and I am happy to do home or community visits. Please feel free to call or stop by and talk with me. My phone number is 206-361-4331.  My e-mail address is barbara.gibson@shorelineschools.org and my hours are Weds & Thursdays all day and Fridays till 12:30pm.
