Freshman Campus Counselors
Bob Gelter
Guidance
Parents (with students last name A - K) may contact Mr. Gelter regarding scheduling questions, academic supports, social-emotional needs for students, any special plans and interventions, or for general information about our school.
He has worked at Lakota West Freshman as a school counselor since its inception in 2008. Prior to that he was a counselor at the combined East and West Freshman School, and he is a former English teacher in the district as well.
Mr. Gelter enjoys helping students begin their high school journey, helping to transition them from the junior high to the main campus. Freshman year is a pivotal year for our students as they begin to mature as thinkers and learners, and as they look towards future goals.
He is a proud resident of the Lakota West community, with his own children either having attended Lakota West High School or attending in the future.
