School Social Worker
Mrs. Castano is the school Social Worker at Oakdale Elementary.
- School Social Workers help to create a safe, caring, and inclusive school environment for all students.
- Social Workers are a part of an attendance team that keeps track of absences. Additionally, they will reach out to parents for meetings in regards to attendance and help to create a plan of action.
- Social Workers see students for therapy whether that is formally (as directed on an Individual Education Plan/ IEP) or informally.
- Social Workers serve as liaisons between schools and parents and help with any assistance in obtaining resources outside of the school.
The School Social Worker is here for you as well as your child and looks forward to helping you.
If you need services, the school social worker can be reached by phone, 860-859-1800 or by emailing.
