Kayla Mitchell
School Counselor
This is the start of my twelfth year as a school counselor and my eighth year working in Ridgefield. I have worked primarily with grades 5-8, and spent some time as a high school counselor. I love working with 5th and 6th graders and am so happy to work in the community that I live in.
My husband Mike and I have four sons. Jaden and Ronin are headed to high school and Cason and Colton are 8 years old. As a family we love all things outdoors. We enjoy going for walks, exploring new areas and being active. I can't wait to learn about you as well!
Katherine Reeves
School Counselor
Hello! The 2025-2026 school year will be my 3rd year here in the Ridgefield school district. Prior to that, I worked 10+ school years in the Central Valley of California primarily as a school counselor for grades 6th-12th. I am grateful to continue this venture with all of your students!
A little about me - my husband Garrison and I have identical twin daughters, April & Melissa, who will be 1st graders at South Ridge, as well as our beloved dog, Aria. We love spending time outdoors, playing video games, cooking and gardening together. I’m a huge Disney fan, love singing and dancing, and am always ready to have fun.
Here’s to the 2025-2026 school year Coyotes!
