Hello, my name is Mr. Parnes, I am the middle school counselor at A2 STEAM.

I have been with A2 STEAM since the 2015-16 school year.

My goal is to provide you with helpful information that will make middle school more manageable for both students and parents.

Some information about me:
​
I grew up in Ann Arbor and attended: Lawton, Slauson, Pioneer, and Community.
I received my BA from University of Michigan where I studied Psychology.
I received my MA in School Counseling from Eastern Michigan University.
Previously, I have been a counselor at CHS, Tappan, Clague, and Slauson.
I am a gaming enthusiast and run an after school "Tabletop Gaming Club".
I have pet cats & dogs. I really enjoy cooking (and eating) new recipes.
I moved to the A2 STEAM neighborhood so I am a part of the community!
