Deb Diemont
School Adjustment Counselor (3-6)
504 Coordinator (4-6)
Hello MES families,
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and School Adjustment Counselor. I began my education at Union College in NY and went on to earn a Masters in Social Work from Boston University in May of 2003. That fall, I began working here at Memorial Elementary School, and I have never wanted to work anywhere else! Taking care of children's hearts and minds has long been our philosophy here. When I am not at MES, I love to spend time with my daughters and walk or hike with my two dogs. Lucy, my "senior" yellow Labrador Retriever is a certified Therapy Dog and will be in the building once a week to spend time with our students and staff. Skylar, my Golden Retriever puppy, is a Therapy Dog in training, who hopes to follow her big sister's "pawprints" one day! Please feel free to reach out with any questions: Email Me
or 508-488-5743.

Kelly McPherson-Todd
School Psychologist (K-6)
Hello, MES Families, I am a School Psychologist who has been working in Hopedale for over twenty years. After receiving my Master's Degree from the University of Massachusetts, I continued my education so that I earned an Advanced Graduate Degree and became a licenced school psychologist. I like to learn and stay current about psychoeducational assessments and social emotional learning by reading professional books, taking workshops, seminars, and graduate classes.
Personally, I enjoy nature, golfing, reading, riding my bike, as well as spending time with my friends and family, especially my new grandson, Otis!!

Outside of work, I enjoy playing board games with my children and friends or exploring nature with our dog, Kobe.
