MSW Field Profiles 2022-23

MSW Annalise McDowell Morris 2022 Agency Name: Reading High School Profile: Reading High School is the only high school apart of the Reading School District. It is the largest high school in the state of Pennsylvania, and services students in a multitude of ways. The team of social workers employed at the high school focus on supporting students and families in order to encourage education and attendance. Field Placement Responsibilities: As an intern at RHS, I work alongside a team of social workers, to not only ensure students feel safe and supported throughout the school day, but when they return home in the afternoon as well. One of our primary responsibilities include connecting families to resources for utilities, food, and housing. Additionally, we connect students to alternative forms of education to better meet their mental and behavioral health needs. Future Goals: In the future, I am excited about the possibility of joining RHS’ social work team. Overall, I hope to collaborate with resources in the Reading area to do whatever it takes to raise up Reading’s community. Department of Social Work
