The Virginia Academy of School Psychologists recognized CCPS school psychologists with the academy’s Social Justice Award. This is only the third time the award has ever been given. 

Laura Early leads the Office of Psychological and Diagnostic Services, which includes 33 full-time school psychologists, one part-time school psychologist, nine educational diagnosticians, two school psychology interns and two school psychology practicum students.

School psychologists help students succeed academically, socially and emotionally. They collaborate with educators, parents and other professionals to create safe, healthy and supportive learning environments for all students and find effective solutions to learning and behavior problems.
