Now in her second year with PCS, Kimberly brings energy, compassion, and a deep commitment to helping students grow. After working in clinical psychology, she discovered her passion for teamwork and supporting children beyond behavior, leading her to school psychology.
She loves seeing students smile, celebrate their goals, and experience real growth through collaboration and care. Kimberly says the job can be demanding, but the success stories make it all worthwhile.
Originally from Arizona, she enjoys spending time with her family, beach days, good conversations, and exploring new places. Fun fact: she’s an F1 racing fan, fascinated by octopi and crows, and can’t stand garlic or onions!
✨ “Determined” — that’s the heart of a school psychologist.

Don’t worry — help is available right at school! 💙
If your child has symptoms of a cold, flu, strep, or COVID, quick and convenient testing can be done through your school nurse. It’s an easy way to help your student feel better sooner and keep everyone healthy this season.

We are so proud of our 3rd grade teacher, Ms. Natalie Tidler. She presented at the 15th annual Teacher 2 Teacher Conference at the University of North Carolina Charlotte. Her presentation was titled “ Creating a Family, Not Just a Classroom.” During this presentation, she spoke about the importance of culturally responsive teaching and building relationships that foster safety, belonging, and as a result, success in the classroom. Rocky Point Elementary is appreciative that she is focusing on developing positive connections in her classroom and our school.


Students are also invited to wear orange this week to show that they are committed to being a good friend to all and to stand up for those students who are in need of support. Together, we can prevent bullying! #OnePender
