Why does every school need a collective care team?
Student success takes more than effective teachers and a rigorous curriculum. The members of the Collective Care Team — school counselors, school nurses, school psychologists and school social workers — play an integral role in ensuring the growth and achievement of our students, both academically and personally. The Collective Care Team collaborates to ensure that every student’s needs are met, throughout their school-age years and beyond.
