The Colorado Society of School Psychologists (CSSP) is currently accepting nominations for the 2019 School Psychologist of the Year. If you would like to nominate an exemplary school psychologist for this honor, please see the guidelines outlined below. Co-workers, supervisors, students, parents, and anyone else who has worked with the nominee in a professional setting may write letters of support. CSSP only considers school psychologists currently working in the school setting. A committee of educational professionals will review all nomination packets submitted. The winner will be announced at the CSSP Fall Conference. Additionally, they will then have the opportunity to be nominated for NASP’s School Psychologist of the Year.

Nominations are due September 15th, 2019.

HB19-1036 is officially a law!

Amazing grassroots advocacy work by CSSP board members Melanie Potyondy and Sacha Mittelman, along with Brittany Vervalin, and Brad Reimers to get this bill passed.

This bill ensures that National Certified School Psychologists (NCSP) across our beautiful state will receive an annual stipend that recognizes the high level training and professional development needed to maintain this distinction.

Big thanks to Representative Jeni James Arndt for this amazing opportunity for school psychologists.
