“Licensed Specialists in School Psychology work with parents, teachers, and administrators to provide supportive learning environments and ensure students’ successful social, emotional, and academic interactions. Their responsibilities include identifying learning disabilities and other special needs as well as offering counseling and intervention services to students and their families.
To highlight the many contributions of Licensed Specialists in School Psychology to the overall academic health of our children, an awareness campaign will be conducted during the week of November 9-13, 2015.
At this time, I encourage all Texans to recognize the role of Licensed Specialists in School Psychology play in educational communities across the Lone Star State.
Therefore, I, Greg Abbott, Governor of Texas, do hereby proclaim November 9-13, 2015 to be School Psychology Awareness Week.”
