This week, we honor the school psychologists whose care and expertise help every learner find their way.
Each November, Paramount Unified School District joins schools nationwide in celebrating National School Psychology Week (NSPW)- a time dedicated to honoring the compassion, skill, and impact of school psychologists who help students thrive in school, at home, and in life.
The 2025 theme, “Finding Your Path,” reflects how school psychologists guide students, families, and school communities in setting and achieving meaningful goals. Their work reaches beyond the classroom, nurturing growth and resilience across every part of a student’s life.
Sponsored by the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), recognizes professionals who help learners discover paths to well-being, learning, and self-confidence that meet their individual needs. Throughout Paramount Unified, colleagues have shared words of gratitude that capture the heart of this important work.
“Collaboration and compassion are at the heart of their work. They remind us that supporting students is truly a team effort.”
“Always professional and deeply knowledgeable- their calm, soothing presence keeps the entire team balanced and focused. They even have wonderful stories that inspire and connect us beyond the workday.”
“Thank you for the care, compassion, and calm you bring to our schools every day. You make a difference in ways that can’t always be measured- but are always felt.”
“School psychologists are the heart of student wellness- supporting learning, promoting resilience, and ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive.”
“With gratitude, we recognize the years of dedicated service given to our learners and school communities. Your care, expertise, and unwavering commitment help students thrive both emotionally and academically. Thank you for making our schools places where every learner is supported and valued!” 💙🧡
“Your unwavering commitment to collaboration and student success is truly inspiring. You consistently lead with empathy, expertise, and a team-first mindset, always putting students’ best interests at the heart of everything you do. Your leadership is invaluable, and your dedication does not go unnoticed. We appreciate you today and every day!”
At the heart of this celebration lies Paramount Unified’s commitment to nurturing an emotionally safe environment, where every learner is empowered to achieve their full potential. School psychologists embody this mission each day- helping students and staff “find their path” through care, collaboration, and steadfast belief in every child’s ability to grow.
