It takes many different roles throughout SSD to achieve success for our students. Although teachers and paraprofessionals handle much of the direct interaction with students in the classroom, there are numerous other support staff personnel who complete the team that supports student success.

Social workers, therapists, bus drivers, maintenance workers, administrators, and many more, all collaborate to provide the necessary resources to provide a lasting impression in the lives of our students.
