On Wednesday, Nov. 19 at 7 p.m., the Garden City Special Education Parent Teacher Association (SEPTA) will present a panel discussion with our district social workers. Learn who they are, what they do, and how they can enhance your child’s educational experience. Join SEPTA as we welcome Lori Kuster, high school; Keegan Baker, middle school; Jennifer DeMieri, primary schools; and Michele Vincent, elementary schools, to this important evening meeting in the high school library.
A school social worker is a member of the support staff who provides a variety of services including counseling, crisis intervention, and in-class presentations on a variety of topics. The school social worker also provides group/individual counseling for children on a variety of subjects including socialization, anxiety, bereavement, divorce, and academic difficulties.
SEPTA encourages all parents with school-aged children to attend this informative session. There will be an opportunity for discussion after the presentation.
Maria Hildreth is a member of SEPTA.
