Office of Social Services

The Office of Social Services provides services and resources to assist in the overall social well-being of our students.

We assist with resources to support students and advocate for their emotional, mental and physical wellbeing. We are the link between schools, families, and communities that help students reach their academic achievements.  By engaging all parties and “hearing” what goes unspoken, we work to identify, address, and overcome these obstacles.
