School Psychologists
A School Psychologist participates in student problem solving/support team meetings, consults with staff, parents, and community mental health providers to identify students with potential disabilities, completes psychological evaluations of intelligence, personality, and emotional disorders, and conducts individual and group counseling sessions. School psychologists facilitate referrals for case study evaluations and eligibility conferences and attend IEP conferences of students with disabilities in out of district programs.
