SEARCH FOR OUTSTANDING SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGIST

The Awards and Honors Committee is soliciting nominations for the Fay Catlett Award for Outstanding School Psychologist. Our purpose is to recognize outstanding Oklahoma school psychology practitioners for their advancement of school psychology and to increase public awareness of the profession.

We believe that there are many school psychologists who are providing excellent services who may go unrecognized for years. This is an opportunity to nominate an associate or someone with whom you are professionally acquainted. We hope that we will have numerous nominations prior to March 1. The award will be presented at the Spring Conference on April 23,1999, at the Edmond Ramada Inn.

Nominees for the award must provide exemplary services to children and youth. Practicing school psychologists who spend the majority of their time providing direct services to students, teachers and parents in school settings are eligible.

Nominations may be made by colleagues, supervisors or through self-application. We encourage nominations from all regions of the state. The candidates will be selected from the applications by a panel of OSPA Executive Board members. The OSPA Outstanding School Psychologist may serve as nominee to other organizations during his or her term.
