Counselor: 9th Grade (M-Z/Department Chair

My name is Mr. Davis and I am heading into my 10th year at Spring Mills High School, working with the Class of 2023. I graduated from Eastern Mennonite University with a degree in Psychology and later earned my MA from LaSalle University in Clinical Counseling Psychology. I spent my first few years working in the community mental health field before entering school counseling.

I enjoy spending time with my wife and my two sons who are entering middle school. When I am not spending time with my boys and their activities, I am trying to fit in a short run, reading or serving at my church and local community. We all enjoy spending time with friends and traveling. Recently, my family was able to spend a year teaching abroad in Prague, Czech Republic. It was a lot of fun for all of us, especially having our boys experience a new culture.

I have enjoyed working at Spring Mills High School, being able to meet students with so many different stories. It is a privilege and a pleasure to speak with our students about their interests, goals and challenges in life. I am looking forward to an awesome 2022-2023 school year!

Counselor: 10th Grade

My name is Elizabeth Kantor-Bright.  I am the 9th grade school counselor at Spring Mills High School.  I obtained a Masters in Counseling from West Virginia University.  I have been a school counselor for many, many years and retired in 2014.  However, I missed working with students so much that I now substitute at different schools in Berkeley.  This year, I get to work at SMHS!!  I love helping young adults realize their greatness!! 

When I am not working at SMHS, I help families who are homeless and supervise individuals who want to become licensed professional counselors.  I also play with my 5 grandchildren, do jigsaw puzzles, garden, read books, travel, and just enjoy life.

In my spare time, I like to paint, read, and video chat with my family. So far, I have enjoyed meeting all the new students, and I look forward to guiding them throughout the years.
