My name is Alyssa Pugliese and I am the School Counselor at Tri-West Middle School. I grew up in Pittsboro and graduated from Tri-West High School in 2004. From there, I went to Indiana State University and graduated in 2011 with my Masters in Education. I worked for 7 years at North Putnam Middle school, but finally made my way back home to North West Hendricks School Corporation in 2018. It's been a true career goal for me to work at TWMS! I am excited to work with the students, staff and community. Please let me know what I can do to help!
