AbstractThe preschool team of teacher, parent, and school social worker is becoming critical as national social policy becomes more responsive to the emotional and behavioral well-being of preschoolers. This small exploratory study compares the ways in which parents and teachers think, feel, and strategize about the aggressive, hyperactive, and withdrawn behaviors of preschool children in an intercity day care center. The sample size and type of sampling prohibit definitive conclusions or generalizations; however, the low-to-moderate correlations between parent and teacher responses are in concert with previous studies. Differing perspectives are expected and appreciated as the team plans strategies for change. School social workers facilitate, advocate, refer, educate, and encourage throughout the process.
