What Do School Psychologists Do? School psychologists provide a comprehensive range of support and interventions to students. They also consult with teachers, families, and other school-employed mental health professionals (i.e., school counselors and school social workers) to improve support strategies. Additionally, they work with school administrators to enhance school-wide practices and policies and collaborate with community providers to coordinate needed services. They are dedicated to helping schools succeed in various areas:
- Improve Academic Achievement
- Promote Positive Behavior and Mental Health
- Support Diverse Learners
- Create Safe, Positive School Climates
- Strengthen Family-School Partnerships
- Improve School-Wide Assessment and Accountability
