Welcome!

The Texas Association of School Psychologists (TASP) is a state affiliate of the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP). TASP was formed in 1993, becoming the 49th state to have a separate organization for school psychologists.

Our mission is:

  • To advance school psychology as both a science and a profession with the ultimate goal of providing and promoting learning, emotional and social development, and mental health of all children in Texas.
  • To stimulate and advance quality education for all children through the integration of theory into practice.
  • To encourage and provide opportunities for the professional growth of school psychologists and related professions.

Call for Poster/Paper Presentations for the TASP 2012 Conference

A great way to spotlight your original research or innovative programs is to present a poster or paper at the TASP professional development conference. The scientist/ practitioner model of school psychological services is the training philosophy for most school psychology programs in Texas. This model encourages professionals to engage in research and program planning to further the understanding of best practices in the field. In order for your personal work to impact the professional practice of others, you must present that work to them. The TASP professional development conference is the ideal place to do this. Students and professionals are invited to submit proposals for poster and paper presentations.

Proposed TSBEP Rule Change for LSSPs Who Hold the NCSP

Hello everyone,
As you read in the most recent newsletter, TSBEP has again proposed the rule change that would allow those LSSPs who hold the NCSP to use that certification in conjunction with the LSSP in professional communication and identification.
