March 5-11 is National School Social Work Week and this year's theme is "We Rise." Social workers in FCPS help to prevent social, emotional, and behavioral factors from affecting a student's ability to perform at their best. Their primary goal is to remove barriers that prevent a student from fulfilling their academic potential. Social workers are assigned to every school and center in the school division. Most social workers serve one to two sites. Learn more about the role of social workers in FCPS. Thank you, school social workers!
