“Helping children thrive in school, at home, in life.”

This statement, promoted on the home page of the National Organization of School Psychologists, speaks to my heart in a very personal way. It is the current motto of our profession, our creed, and the purpose-driven reminder of what we are about every day, even when others may not be so sure about what our jobs even entail. We know that what we do is crucial to the lives of the children and the families that we serve.
