School Social Worker-Help Starts Here

 

 

 

 

 

 

Welcome to my web site.  My name is Ms. D. Campbell.  I have been the School Social Worker at Independence High School for three of my four years with Fulton County Board of Education.  Enjoy learning about Social Work.

Prior to coming to FCBOE, I worked 26 years as a clinical social worker with the Department of Veterans Affairs in mental health, substance abuse and homelessness. 

Vision:  Every student can succeed to his/her fullest potential in a school and in life as long as the student feels supported and encouraged to have an “I CAN ATTITUDE” within a safe, caring, physically neat environment.
