I am both honored and privileged to have the opportunity to start a new chapter in my career at Hasbrouck Heights High School as the Director of Guidance and Testing, after serving as the Vice Principal for the past six years. I am looking forward to supporting our Aviator students in a different capacity, with the aim of preparing them for the next chapter of their lives. The goal of our department has been and will continue to be to support the mission and vision of the district, with the intent and commitment to developing well-rounded young adults; academically, socially, and emotionally. Please know that the High School administrative team, as well as the counseling department, are here to assist you and your student(s) with any of their needs. I look forward to working with each of you to have another successful school year. 

Hello Junior Aviators!

My name is Lindsey Gesell, and I am the School Counselor for grades six through eight, last names A-L. I earned a B.A. degree in Psychology from William Paterson University and a M.A. degree in Counseling with a state certification in School Counseling from Caldwell University. This is my tenth year working in the Hasbrouck Heights School District, and in this time I have worked with grades six through twelve.  As always, please feel free to contact me at any time with your questions or concerns! You can reach me at geselllin@hhschools.org or 201-393-8167.  I am looking forward to an exciting school year together!

Fun Facts: I love Rock Concerts, Hockey (Go Devils!), Red Swedish Fish and Reese's Pieces are my favorite candy, and in my free time you can find me chasing my wild toddler, Aston Bond (we're big 007 fans)!
