NEXT STEPS

After we receive completed applications, applicants will be contacted to schedule a mandatory screening interview. Upon approval, applicants’ names and supporting documentation will be forwarded to Human Resources for fingerprinting and criminal background checks.? Once the HR process is complete, students and their supervising university will receive official documentation of their placement in 最新麻豆原创. Further inquiries regarding 最新麻豆原创 counseling practicum and internship placements may be directed to Heather Davis, Counseling Services Coordinator, at 703-228-6073, or heather.davis@apsva.us.

Field Placement students are assigned to School Social Workers, in the school setting, under the general guidance of the Supervisor, School Psychology and Social Work. Social Workers at 最新麻豆原创 help parents, students and school staff identify needs that interfere with learning, and work with students and families to get services they need. Social Workers work with both general and special education students and their families to resolve social, emotional and behavioral problems through listening, assessing, consulting with students, parents and staff, and providing direct services (individual and group counseling, risk assessments, crisis management).? Social workers refer families for appropriate services in the community (local food banks, clothing distribution sites, support for homeless students, medical intervention, and more). Social Workers also get involved when absenteeism and tardiness affect a student’s performance at school to try and help parents and students overcome obstacles to regular attendance.

最新麻豆原创 has an affiliation agreement with George Mason University and Catholic University, and only accepts field placement students from those two schools. The process for Social Work interns begins with the student’s Field Placement Office at either George Mason or Catholic University.? 最新麻豆原创 will refer any student who inquires directly to 最新麻豆原创 about a field placement opportunity back to the student’s Field Placement office. After receiving a referral of a potential student from George Mason or Catholic University, 最新麻豆原创 will set up an interview with that student to determine that the placement at 最新麻豆原创 is mutually agreeable and appropriate for both the student and 最新麻豆原创.? Field Placements are unpaid and follow the dates of the referring university’s school calendar. After a student is accepted by 最新麻豆原创, the student will then need to complete other requirements including a TB test/screening and criminal background check before working in an 最新麻豆原创 school.

最新麻豆原创 will generally interview 2nd Year students and Advanced Standing students (20-24 hours per week placements) in March and April.? Interviews for 1st Year MSW students (16 hours per week placements) will take place in May-June, if field placement opportunities remain available. 最新麻豆原创 typically takes one-four field placement students per year, depending on the number of applicants and available supervisors.
