Hello! My name is Laura Snare, and I feel blessed to be a part of such a phenomenal school. Born and raised in Florida, I am a product of Pinellas County Schools and the Fundamental program. I graduated from the University of South Florida with a B.A. in Elementary Education. After teaching for 3 years, I returned to USF to earn my Master’s degree in Counseling and a Graduate Certificate in Play Therapy. I am thankful to have been a part of the Tarpon Fundamental family for 19 years and in education with Pinellas County for 24 years.

As the counselor, I enjoy being able to work with kids individually, in small groups and in classroom settings. I am passionate about the care and well-being of children and find joy working with them each day.

I enjoy living in Tarpon Springs with my family and Golden Retriever, Zeke.  My husband and I have 3 wonderful boys, all who have attended TSFES.  Our oldest has graduated college and works full-time at a local business.  Our middle son is beginning his third year of college and our youngest is beginning his freshman year of college at the University of Florida – go Gators!    In my free time I enjoy the outdoors, reading, running, watching sports, and church activities.
