The goal of the School Social Work Program at Sycamore Creek Elementary is to partner directly with families, educators, students, and our community to address and overcome barriers to academic achievement. Ultimately, this partnership provides the necessary support and guidance that are essential to academic success and sound life decisions.

We work to provide a variety of services that aim to empower both the individual student and his/her family. Interventions are driven by the belief that early detection and prevention are crucial to stable outcomes in our schools, homes, and communities.

Social workers in schools are uniquely qualified to support students in a variety of ways. This is achieved through ongoing consultation with parents, educators and administrators, which promotes a team orientated approach to maximize each child’s potential.
