Formal and informal needs assessments will be a continuous aspect of this practicum with services determined by the needs identified by students, staff, and administration. 2. To provide graduate students in school psychology a group supervision experience via the weekly seminar, during which students will build professional skills and critical personal qualities through reflection and peer support.
