Just another day in the life of a school psych practicum student

The days in the life of school psychs can be ridiculously crazy and busy.
My supervisor had 5 meetings today, for example.
Meanwhile, here's my day:

8:00 arrive, get ready to test student for social-emotional case study-meeting is next week, an initial evaluation.
8-10:55 test student, have him fill out rating scales, informal interview
11:00-11:45--meet with PK teacher for consultation project on student with behavior issues
11:45-12:15ish--talk with supervisor, eat a snack
12:15-1:00--discuss cases with supervisor, observe 2 students
1:00-1:25--meet with teacher to help with FBA/report on student for SE case study
1:25-2--504 meeting student with seizures, input information from observations into reports
2-2:30---input info from observations
2:30-4--eligibility meeting, initial eval, ends with parent in tears

Happy Wednesday. Can't say it's boring.

Next week: 2 observations, present findings at two eligibility meetings
