Hi! I’m Nicolette Johnson, and I’m so excited to be joining Plano East this year! This is my sixth year in education and my second in counseling and school social work here in PISD.

I earned my BSW from Abilene Christian University and my MSW from UT Arlington. I’m passionate about supporting students and families through all of life’s ups and downs.

Outside of work, I’m a proud wife and mom to a very silly 2.5-year-old, along with our two adopted pups! In my free time, you can usually find me reading on my Kindle, playing video games with my husband, wandering the aisles of Marshalls, or trying out new foods. I’m also a huge fan of movies and music—especially horror films, anime, R&B, and singer-songwriter vibes.
