Hi, I'm your counselor, Mr. Strausser.
This is
my 2nd year as counselor at St. Edward School. Before coming to St. Edward I worked in other schools as a teacher, counselor
, and school psychologist. I like working at St. Edward because I can enjoy the special qualities that students at many different
ages bring to St. Edward. Also I like working here because I'm only about one block from home! Besides my three children
being St. Edward graduates, my wife, Ann, also graduated from St. Edward.
I grew up in a small
town about two hours south of Waterloo called Noth English. (And yes, there is a South English about five miles south of North
English!) My graduating class from English Valleys High School had about 65 students. While going there I enjoyed lots of
activities like chorus, band, plays, student council, football, track, newspaper, and yearbook. I completed all my college
work at UNI in Cedar Falls and am a faithful fan and supporter of anything Panther.
