The Williamsport Area School District’s Department of Student Services provides a wide array of assistance programs and comprehensive services to students, staff and parents. New pressures on communities, families and schools have resulted in more at-risk students. The Student Services staff works in collaboration with other professionals and community agencies in order to meet numerous needs. Staff members address a myriad of issues including career education/planning, self-esteem, interpersonal relations, absenteeism, peer mediation, school safety and mental and physical health. Student Services are coordinated programs of specialized services to students and families.
