Hi ! I need to know if your school

hires school psychologist that holds their M.A in school psychology or they must have their Ph.D/PSY.D .

I am debating between the M.A in school psychologist or Bilingual school social work. Chat Icon

One of our psychologists just finished her doctorate, so I think they will hire you if you are in process of getting it. The other one has had her doctorate the entire time I've been working with her.

In my elementary school, our school psyh. that just retired had his Psy.D

Our new psychologist is young and has her MA in school psychology and professional diploma (additional credits past the Masters, but not a doctorate). I believe the P.D. is what you need to get certified in NYS as a school psych.

I am a school psych and I have my Psy.D. Every district I have been in does hire psychologists at both the masters (M.S.Ed) and doctorate levels. In order to work in a school, you need your certification as a school psych from the nys ed department. The minimum requirement is a masters.

Have you considered doing the bilingual school psych? I think that having the bilingual certification would really help in getting a job in either social work or psychology. Mental health jobs in schools are really hard to come by.

UPDATE: I decided to go back to school for the Bilingual school social worker degree. I figure this will give me more options then the M.A in psych. I'm attending Adelphi. Started classes this week. THank you ladies for all of your feedback.
