    Welcome!

    Hello, my name is Melanie Holan and I am thrilled to work with your students at Payne Junior High.

    My Education and Professional Background

    After graduating with my bachelor’s degree in Human Development from California State University, Long Beach in 2005, I received my School Counseling Credential from San Jose State University in 2007.  I worked three years as a K-8 School Counselor in Santa Clara, CA and then two years as a High School Counselor in Brentwood, CA.  In 2012, my family relocated from the Bay Area to Gilbert, AZ and I spent five years at home with my three children.  In 2017, I began my Arizona School Counseling journey as a Payne Panther! 

    My Educational Philosophy

    I am here to support all students and their needs to be successful throughout Junior High; working together with the students, teachers and parents to prepare each individual for High School. I believe every student is capable of success and look forward to helping them reach their goals. Go Panthers!
