I am pleased to write to you again this month with more NASP highlights, especially as we celebrate National School Psychology Awareness Week, November 9-13. The theme this year, ‘See the possibilities in you. We do!’ seeks to promote students’ resilience, optimism, and academic achievement by encouraging them to see the possibilities in themselves and their world.
