    What is SAP/ESAP?

    A SAP team is made up of school and agency staff designed to help parents and students access school and community services. In PA, every school district is required to have a plan for identifying and assisting students who experience barriers to learning. Our ESAP team is specific to the students in our district at the elementary level.

    What would be some reasons to refer a student?

    • Noticeable change in friends and/or behavior
    • Drop in grades
    • Withdrawal from friends and activities
    • Signs of depression
    • Overheard conversations about destructive decisions

     Who can make a referral?

    Parents, peers/other students, teachers, bus drivers, school counselors, administrators, and other school employees

     How would I make a referral?
