Celebrate National School Social Work Week
March 3 – 9, 2024
Celebrating the “Pearls of Wisdom” that each SSW brings to their schools!
Time to get ready for National School Social Work Week which is always the first full week of March. School Social Work Week provides an excellent opportunity to “toot your own horn” and let others know how you are impacting the lives of students as you address barriers to learning and increase successful educational and academic outcomes.
SSWAA & NYSSSWA encourage you to not only celebrate and be acknowledged for all of the tireless work you do to assist others but to spread the word about the ways you are making a difference in the lives of students and their families as well as provide support and “wisdom” to administrators and educators.
Make sure your district has included School Social Work Week on their School Calendars!
