Marsha Francois

Dedicated school psychology professional with strong experience in functional behavior assessments, report writing, and progress monitoring. Proven ability to support a range of student needs, collaborate with educators and families, and contribute to intervention initiatives. Focused on providing evidence-based, culturally responsive care and support in educational settings.

I am a dedicated school psychologist with hands-on experience supporting diverse learners across general and special education settings. I conduct comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations, facilitate MTSS interventions, and collaborate closely with teachers, families, and multidisciplinary teams to promote student success. My work is grounded in culturally responsive practices, executive functioning supports, and trauma-informed care. I've led executive functioning groups using evidence-based tools like Unstuck and On Target, supported students with ADHD and school avoidance, and provided data-driven insights to guide eligibility decisions and individualized supports. I’m especially passionate about using visual schedules, declarative language, and strength-based strategies to help students build independence, confidence, and engagement in learning.

I hold an Education Specialist (Ed.S.) degree in School Psychology from Florida International University, where I received comprehensive training in psychoeducational assessment, intervention, and consultation. My coursework and field experiences emphasized culturally responsive practices, evidence-based behavioral and academic interventions, and data-driven decision-making within MTSS and special education frameworks. I also earned a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Florida International University and a Master’s in Reading Education from Barry University, which deepened my understanding of literacy development and diverse learning needs—foundational to my work in school psychology.
