Charlotte County Public Schools has a team dedicated to addressing the mental health needs of our students.  The school social worker, school psychologist, and school counselor collaborate with school administration and staff to address the unique needs of each individual student. Our School-based mental health team members also collaborate with the FLDOE to acquire the most up-to-date information and resources to share with students, staff, and families.

Crisis response teams are comprised of school social workers, school psychologists, and school counselors.  The purpose of Crisis Response to a traumatic event is to provide immediate support and assistance to those in need, while re-establishing normalcy in the school as quickly as possible.​ (SB Policy #8410 & #8410.01)

Examples of School Crisis

  • The death of a student, a staff member, or a community member whose death affects a significant portion of the school population
  • Major environmental crisis, such as a flood or fire
  • A situation that involves a threat to the physical safety of students, such as a school bus accident, even in the absence of injuries
