In NYS, there is a different process and license to become a school SWer. Also I think you have to have a lot of experience in a school first. I love this idea though. I actually have gone on interviews for not school SWer but similar positions for SWers in schools and the response has always been "but all your experience lies in mental health" and "you don't have school experience". I think Munchkin is on to something and I am going to start looking into it more after the holidays. I just need to get through the next few weeks first. Also, we are very short-staffed here and need another SWer which leads to higher stress levels in the office for the entire team. I'll keep you all posted though.

My friend who just became a School Social Worker did not have any school experience either (I'll ask her to double-check).
Good Luck in whatever you decide.
