Typical responsibilities include: Conducting comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations for students referred for academic, behavioral, social-emotional, and developmental concerns Administering standardized tests and assessment batteries, observing students in educational settings, and gathering information from teachers, families, and support staff Interpreting assessment data to develop clear, detailed evaluation reports that align with state and federal regulations and local district guidelines Participating in virtual and in-person multidisciplinary team meetings, including IEP and eligibility meetings, to present findings and collaborate on decisions regarding eligibility and services Providing data-informed recommendations for instructional strategies, behavioral supports, and school-based interventions Consulting with teachers and school staff to support the implementation of interventions and accommodations within general and special education settings Contributing to the development and maintenance of a positive, supportive school climate by sharing expertise in social-emotional learning and behavioral supports Maintaining accurate, timely documentation and adhering to all confidentiality, ethical, and legal standards of the profession The typical workweek involves scheduling blocks of time at the school for direct student testing, followed by designated hours for virtual report writing and attendance at online meetings with instructional teams and families. This part-time structure is ideal for School Psychologists seeking a consistent, meaningful caseload without a full-time commitment. Largo and the surrounding communities in Prince George’s County are known for their strong focus on education, community engagement, and student success. The schools in this region are supported by a variety of state and local initiatives that promote instructional quality, positive school climate, and innovative approaches to learning.
