What is a school psychologist?

A school psychologist is a trained professional who supports students’ learning, behavior, and mental health within educational settings. They work with students, teachers, and families to help address academic, social, and emotional challenges. School psychologists conduct assessments, provide counseling, and develop interventions to promote student success and well-being. They also collaborate with educators to create safe, supportive, and effective learning environments.

How do school psychologists typically collaborate with teachers and parents to support student success?

School psychologists work closely with teachers and parents by conducting assessments, sharing insights on student behavior and learning needs, and developing intervention plans. They often participate in meetings such as IEP (Individualized Education Program) or 504 Plan sessions to ensure all stakeholders are informed and involved in decision-making. Regular communication and collaboration help create a supportive environment tailored to each student's unique challenges, promoting both academic and emotional well-being.
