​About Me

I am Katie di Carlo, and I serve as WYWLA's Dean of Students.  I work with students and parents in grades 9-13 on academic, personal and college/career counseling.  I have served as a school counselor in Cumberland and Wake County Public School Systems for 15 years.  I earned my BA in Psychology from UNC-Chapel Hill and my MS in Counselor Education from East Carolina University.  I consider it an honor and a pleasure to work with our OWLS at the first public single gender school in the state!
