Mission Statement: SPASEO is a group of school psychologists who serve the rural population of schools in Ohio’s Appalachian counties. The group exists to disseminate and support the use of best practices and solutions to the challenges of serving children, schools and families in this region.

The professionals of SPASEO are a diverse group with many job functions due to the specific needs of their situations. Each of us is called upon to apply our knowledge in new ways every day. Each of us is an “ultimate generalist” in that we have to be able find and develop our skills to address the needs of the children and the district with little or sometimes any time to come up to speed on the intricacies of any need.
