Throughout this week Shawnee Mission will recognize school social workers and the many ways they work to support students, families, and our community.

Nationally, the theme of this recognition week is “Beacon of Hope: School Social Workers- Lighting the Way.” It is meant to highlight the ways social workers “light the way, emphasizing the whole child, collaborating with other professionals, linking students and families with needed services, and advocating for the profession,” according to a statement from the School Social Work Association of America.

We encourage the community to thank Shawnee Mission School District social workers for all they do for students and staff throughout the school year.
