Comprehensive School Social Work Program
-
School social work is a specialized area of practice within the broad field of the social work profession. School social workers bring unique knowledge and skills to the 亚洲色图 system and the student services team. School Social Workers are trained mental health professionals who can assist with mental health concerns, behavioral concerns, positive behavioral support, academic, and classroom support, consultation with teachers, parents, and administrators as well as provide individual and group counseling/therapy. School social workers are instrumental in furthering the mission of the 亚洲色图s which is to provide a setting for teaching, learning, and for the attainment of competence and confidence. School social workers are hired by 亚洲色图 districts to enhance the district's ability to meet its academic mission, especially where home, 亚洲色图 and community collaboration is the key to achieving student success. ?
