The week of November 11-15 marks National School Psychology Week (NSPW). This week celebrates the contributions of school psychologists and the important role they play in schools and communities.
NSPW is an annual opportunity to recognize school psychologists’ work to help youth thrive. School psychologists partner with families, teachers, school administrators, and other professionals to create safe, healthy, and supportive learning environments for students. They apply expertise in mental health, learning, and behavior to help children and youth succeed socially, behaviorally, emotionally, and academically.
This year's theme, "Spark Discovery," recognizes the work that school psychologists do to help their communities seek out new ideas, effect change, and expand horizons for children and youth. Join us by taking this week to embark on a journey of discovery, explore how each person can celebrate the work of school psychologists, and learn how school psychologists help students, families, and communities every day!
