Jobbeschreibung

The role of a School Psychologist is both impactful and integral to the educational success and well-being of students. As a School Psychologist (also recognized as School Psych or Ed.S.

This position is full-time and follows a school-year schedule, offering the chance to work collaboratively with a dedicated team of educators and administrators in a supportive environment.

As a School Psychologist, you will conduct comprehensive student evaluations, participate in Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings, and contribute to the development of tailored educational plans. Your expertise will be vital in providing direct counseling services and behavioral interventions to students, ensuring they receive the support necessary to thrive in the academic setting. Collaboration is a key component of this role, as you will work closely with teachers, families, and school administrators to promote a holistic approach to student development and success.

Commitment to ethical practice, ongoing professional development, and collaboration are essential attributes for success in this role.

In return for your expertise and dedication, you will be part of an educational community that values the contributions of mental health professionals.
