The 24-25 Educator Shortage Report lists school psychologists within the Top 3 unfilled school support personnel positions in Illinois. School psychologists are ranked the #1 position remedied though alternative measures. Working with independent contractors is the most popular way school districts address unfilled positions in Illinois.
The shortage is real
ESP addresses the school psych shortage in Illinois by providing services to multiple school districts each year. In our own small way, helping more districts improve their service delivery to students through high quality evaluations, compliant legal paperwork, and meetings that are meaningful.
