Welcome to Mr. Marty Irwin's Guidance Counseling Website!!!

This is my fifth year at Lexington Middle School and I love it! Prior to moving to Fort Myers in August of 2007, I worked for twenty years in the South Bend, Indiana school system as a School Social Worker and a Guidance Counselor.

I currently serve as the guidance counselor for students with last names ending in M thru Z. You may hear students refer to me as either Mr. Marty or Mr. Irwin. I am excited and honored to be working with students at Lexington Middle. To date, I have enjoyed talking with students through numerous classroom presentations and individual counseling meetings. Although middle school is often thought of as a difficult time for teens, I have been very impressed by students' overall attitudes and behaviors. The administration, teachers, and support staff have also been equally wonderful to work with.

Finally, I have included a few helpful links (above) as a resource for parents to obtain information about a variety of teen and parenting issues. Also, please feel free to call me or email me at www.martinji@leeschools.net if you have any questions or concerns. Best wishes for a great school year!
