What is a School Psychologist?
School psychologists work with children, teachers and families to promote academic, social and emotional development. Training includes preparation in behavioral and educational interventions, child development, learning, assessment, consultation, school law and systems. We collaborate with teachers, support staff, administrators and families to ensure each child's individual growth and success. School psychologists also provide communication links with outside agencies and professionals, as well as resources for families. some helpful information sites are:
