MEET MS. GOLDMAN
Counselor
MEET MS. KAISER
My wife and I have been married for 24 years and have lived in Payson for 19. We have 4 kids and all of them have had great experiences in Payson schools. All four of them started at PES and two have now graduated from PHS.
I have a Master’s degree in counseling from Regent University in Virginia Beach, a pretty but very hot city. Payson is so much better. I enjoy helping kids and assisting parents who are doing the difficult but rewarding work of raising children.
