School Psychological Services

Our school psychologists work with preschool and school age children, their teachers, and their families to promote successful educational experiences. Psychological services include assessment and consultation about learning, social, and behavior issues. Our school psychologists tailor their services to the particular needs of each child and each situation. Specialized training in human behavior, child development, and education provides school psychologists with the skills to ensure that each student learns in a safe, healthy, and supportive environment.

In accordance with federal and state laws, our school psychologists conduct formal assessments that are a component of a comprehensive evaluation when considering student eligibility for special education programming.

As part of multidisciplinary teams, our school psychologists assist in developing program recommendations and making placement decisions. School psychologists also provide consultation to instructional support teams, administrators, individual teachers, parents, and other professionals, when needed. In addition, school psychologists serve as integral

members of crisis intervention teams that respond to critical situations having a general impact on the student population.
