The Editor’s Notes
The National Association of School Psychologists designated this week as National School Psychology Week. This year’s theme, “Finding Your Path,” honors the essential role school psychologists play in helping students discover their strengths, set goals and navigate their educational journeys.
“School psychologists help students find their path by identifying barriers, fostering resilience and creating supportive environments where every child can thrive. Whether it’s through individualized support, collaboration with educators and families, or innovative wellness initiatives, school psychologists are making a difference in ways that are both measurable and meaningful,” says this release from CMS. Thank you to all of our school psychologists.
National Homelessness Awareness Month is also observed during the month of November with a specific focus on youth. Check out this release from Durham Public Schools about how a resource closet can provide more choices to families.
Here is your playlist for the weekend from Jeff McDaris.
