National School Psychology Week: November 11-15th - Spark Discovery - Link to Sample Resources: | During the week of November 11 - 15th, the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) and schools across the United Staes will mark National School Psychology Week (NSPW). This week celebrates the contribution 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 children thrive in school, at home, and in life. 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. Consider 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. |
