School Social Work

  • My name is Mrs. Dawn Doan and I am your School Social Worker.  I have been a School Social Worker for 11 years.  It is my job to help students be as successful as they can be in school.  My motto is: “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” ~ Nelson Mandela

     

    School Social Workers provide the vital link between the home, school, and community to provide support services that impact students’ academic achievement. The role of school social workers is to help students increase academic success, improve interpersonal relationships, cope with crisis situations, learn problem-solving skills, improve attendance, and build self-esteem.
