The School Psychologist works collaboratively with educators, families, and administrators to implement evidence-based practices, promote Social Emotional Learning, support crisis prevention and intervention, and ensure compliance with state and federal regulations.

• In coordination with educational teams, conduct observations, screenings, and comprehensive evaluations to document students' current levels of academic, behavioral, and social-emotional performance using assessment tools and techniques aligned with an MTSS framework.

This may include use of RIOT procedures (Review, Interview, Observe, Test), Functional Behavioral Assessments (FBA), and development of Behavior Intervention Plans (BIP).
• Prepare high-quality written reports summarizing screening and evaluation results; communicate findings clearly and effectively to educational teams, parents, and other stakeholders; and ensure all required documentation is accurately entered into the electronic IEP system.

• Support building administration, case managers, and educational teams in the Section 504 process by reviewing records, interpreting private evaluation reports, and conducting additional assessments or observations as needed.
• Maintain current knowledge of curricula, assessments, and evidence-based interventions that are developmentally, culturally, and linguistically responsive, and promote their effective use across school settings.
• Provide consultative services to staff, students, families, administrators, and community partners to support academic achievement, behavior, and social-emotional functioning.
• Participate in the development and implementation of student supports, services, and professional learning opportunities that promote Social Emotional Learning (SEL) standards and curriculum.
