Pupil/Special Education Services
The pupil services disciplines of
school counseling, school nursing and school psychology are
essential to the success of childen in the Kimberly Area School
District. Professionals trained in these disciplines provide a
bridge between learning and mental, physical, emotional, and social
health factors that determine educational achievement and life
success. These pupil services providers use a variety of strategies
to help meet our children's needs that include providing direct
service to students, staff members, families, and acting as
liaisons between classroom teachers, families, community agencies,
and neighborhoods.
