Student Support Services

A Commitment to Equity

 

Welcome to the Parlier Unified School District Student Support Services department. In Parlier, we believe that everyone benefits from support and can contribute to an environment where learning, teaching, and leading thrive.

 

Our department is the heartbeat of equity for our students across our seven school sites. We are committed to removing the non-academic barriers that stand in the way of student success. From mental health and attendance to civil rights and safety, we provide the framework that ensures every student—from our TK classrooms at Brletic to our graduates at Parlier High and San Joaquin Valley High—feels safe, supported, and ready to learn. Your student's well-being is our primary directive.
