Jambo! 

I am Mwalimu Fashon' Simpson, your School Social Worker for the 2020-2021 school year! This is my second year at SLPS and I am ready, willing and able to serve.

My role is to assist with the social and emotional needs of students, families and teachers here at Pamoja. I received both my undergraduate and graduate degrees in Social Work; undergraduate from Alabama Agricultural & Mechanical University and graduate from University Missouri of St. Louis. I look forward to working with you all in different capacities and really being what I needed as a child to the students and families I'll service.

My time is split between AESM L'Ouvurture and Pamoja. I am at Pamoja M, T and every other Friday. If you are in need of resources or have any questions do not hesitate to contact me.
