Hello. My name is Samantha Portnoy and I am the School Social Worker for Rocky River Elementary School. I have been practing Social Work with children and families since 2009.

As a School Social Worker I can provide:

*Parent outreach  * Parent education   *Individual and group counseling *Community resources  *Case management  *Family outreach 

*Crisis Intervention/response   *Attendance monitoring/intervention   *Homeless education support/ McKinney Vento
