Social Workers

  • Social work services are provided at all schools in Elkhart Community Schools, with full-time social workers assigned in the PACE Preschool, and at Beardsley, Beck, Cleveland, Hawthorne, Roosevelt, Woodland Elementary schools, as well as at all secondary schools including Tipton Street Center. Part-time services are provided at Bristol, Daly, Eastwood, Feeser, Monger, Osolo, Pinewood, and Riverview. Additionally, full-time social work is provided for special education transition.
  • Social workers provide a number of services including individual and group counseling, attendance monitoring, helping families connect with needed community services, helping parents complete social-developmental histories required when psychological testing is warranted, assisting when families are in need of food, shelter, clothing, and a variety of other activities intended to help assure that students are in school under the best circumstances for them to be successful.

 

Parent Resource Coordinators

  • Elkhart Community Schools’ ten Title 1 schools, those with a large number of low income families in their attendance areas, are making a real effort to serve not only the children in their districts, but also the students’ parents and guardians.
  • Each of the Title I schools employs a Parent Support Coordinator to help parents find the community resources they need to better the lives of their families.
  • Parent Support Coordinators provide information on everything from how to obtain tutoring services for children to job guidance and finding resources for paying bills.
