Working as a School Psychologist offers the chance to engage with a diverse population of students, educators, and families, ensuring that each student receives the support and resources necessary to thrive both academically and personally.
In this role, the School Psychologist will be responsible for conducting psychoeducational assessments and reevaluations to identify student needs, strengths, and areas for growth.

In addition, the School Psychologist provides short-term counseling to students facing social, emotional, or behavioral challenges, and offers crisis response services when urgent situations arise.
Communication is a cornerstone of the School Psychologist position. You will serve as a key liaison between students, families, and school staff, ensuring that everyone is aligned and informed about student progress, support plans, and any necessary adjustments. Building strong relationships with families and educators is essential for fostering a collaborative approach to student development and well-being.
To succeed as a School Psychologist, you must hold a valid Educational Staff Associate (ESA) certification and possess a Master's or Specialist degree in School Psychology or a closely related field. Demonstrated skills in teamwork, collaboration, and effective communication are vital, as the role requires regular interaction with a diverse range of individuals.
