Meet Our Counselors

Ms. Scott | scott.melanie@usd443.org | I have been a high school counselor at Dodge City High School since 2007. While a big part of my job is helping students graduate and work towards their post-secondary dreams, I am passionate about helping our DCHS students, educators, and families take care of their mental health and advocate for their own self-care. I am a DCHS Yoga Club sponsor as well as a co-sponsor for DCHS TALC, our teen Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Club. I am a member of the Ford County Suicide Prevention Coalition. In my spare time, I am a mom raising a teen and mini queen. We love to be out in nature, seeing who can catch the most fish or hiking new places. For my self-care, I enjoy coffee, yoga, gardening, and reading.

Ms. Salmans | salmans.tara@usd443.org | I love my job because I get to work with teenagers everyday!  Fun fact - I may be a little obsessed with the Dallas Cowboys, energy drinks, & weenie dogs!
