Meeting Street Schools is a groundbreaking network of four South Carolina schools with a mission of “empowering children with the excellent, life-changing education they deserve.” We were founded in 2008 to give hard-working students the opportunity to receive an education that will transform their lives. We are ambitious in our commitment to families, and we expect the same in return. We value exceptional teaching, life-changing student achievement, innovation and a growth mindset, and gratitude and responsibility.
We exist to change the status quo in education, and we seek individuals who strongly align with our mission. We look for those who refuse to compromise and see education as the gateway to opportunity. We hold high expectations for ourselves and our students. Our team strives to meet a bar of excellence, and we constantly challenge ourselves to get better and evolve our approach. High performers and leaders are encouraged to apply.
The School Psychologist is a relational and strategic leader, responsible for supporting students socially and emotionally to be successful at school. With a keen eye on data, the School Psychologist will collaborate with school leaders and the Student Support Team to monitor progress, identify areas of need, and develop targeted intervention plans. At Meeting Street Schools, we believe that supporting the whole child—academically, socially, and emotionally—is essential to student success. Our School Psychologist plays a key leadership role in making this vision a reality.
