School Counselor vs School Social Worker vs School Psychologist (PPSC Authorizations)

At the Symposium for CA School Administrators (ACSA 2017), we led a workshop that described the similarities and differences between school counseling, school social work, and school psychology. We described the traditional role of each position, then gave examples of how school districts have used each position in innovative ways, with emphasis on equity and collaboration across role groups.

Each role is rewarding in it’s own way. Here’s a link to ACSA Symposium Conference Workshop. Please note CTC regs regarding PPSC authorizations have since been updated.

Life goes in circles

Good news, life goes in circles and we learn something each time around.

MLK on Interdependence

“In a real sense all life is inter-related. We are in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. … this is the inter-related structure of reality.”

– Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Letter from Birmingham Jail

How are the children? Masai greeting

From Masai tribe: (Kenya 🇰🇪 Tanzania 🇹🇿)

“Kasserian Ingera,” one would always say to another. It means, “How are the children?” It is still the traditional greeting among the Masai, acknowledging the high value that the Masai place on their children’s well-being, and community.

From Restorative Justice (RJ) Restorative Practices training.
