What is the role of the Student Service Team?

The role of an Elementary Student Services Team (SST) is to support students' instructional process by identifying and eliminating barriers to learning, advocating for the needs of the whole child, and empowering all students to become lifelong learners. The role of the Student Services team is not academically content-specific. However, services are designed with individual student's needs or areas of concern. They may be implemented across curricular areas and address issues that are not "academic" but negatively impact the student or school in some way.
