Psychological Services

School Psychologists work with students, educators, and families to support academic achievement, positive behavior, and mental wellness of all students, especially those who struggle with barriers to learning.

School Psychologists help schools and families address some of our biggest challenges in education: improving and individualizing instruction to close the achievement gap.

School Psychologists are a critical part of the school team that ensures quality, genuinely accessible education for all students in our community:

  • gifted students who need opportunities for enrichment

  • typical student who benefit from differentiated instructional approaches

  • struggling students who need remedial instruction to address milk skill deficits

  • eligible students who need individualized instructional services to address learning-related disabilities

School Psychologists have extensive training in:

  • assessments

  • progress monitoring

  • instruction

  • child development and psychology

  • consultation

  • counseling

  • crisis response

  • program evaluation

  • data collection and analysis

Our training is specific to applying this expertise within the school context, both general and special education, and also includes extensive knowledge in school systems and law.
