School social workers provide a wide variety of support services designed to model collaboration and help students come to school ready to learn. School social workers consult with educators and families about individual student needs, involve parents in special education services, and help families’ access community or medical services.  Each social worker has been designated as the Dignity Act Co-Coordinator in their respective buildings.
