Our attendance at the FASP Annual Conference allowed us to learn from some of the most distinguished figures in the field of school psychology, including Dr. Charles Barrett, Dr. Kelsie Reed, and Dr. Peter Isquith. Their expertise and insights were invaluable, shedding light on critical topics that are shaping the field today.
One of the focal points of our learning was the concept of executive functioning, a fundamental aspect of cognitive development that significantly impacts a student's ability to succeed academically and socially. Dr. Peter Isquith provided a comprehensive and cutting-edge understanding of executive functioning conceptualization, equipping us with the knowledge and tools to better support students in this crucial area.
Additionally, we explored the innovative approach of conducting assessments from a strength-based lens.

It was a paradigm shift in how we approach psychological assessments, enabling us to provide more holistic and empowering support to the students under our care.
The knowledge and expertise gained from these renowned school psychologists will undoubtedly enhance our ability to make a positive impact on the lives of students, families, and educational communities.

Throughout the conference, attendees were not only exposed to cutting-edge research, best practices, and insights from renowned experts but also had the opportunity to establish meaningful connections.
