I am Mrs. Kadyszewski and I am so excited to be your school counselor for another school year. This is my 16th year in the North Penn School District. I previously was the elementary counselor at Gwyn-Nor Elementary School for nine years. I love Pennbrook and I love all of my students. I graduated from West Chester University, where I received my master's degree in Counseling & Educational Psychology. I am married and have two daughters & two dogs.
