Social Worker - District Office (2024-2025)

Mission: The Marysville Joint Unified School District, in partnership with our staff, students, their families and the community, will provide each student with the most appropriate educational opportunities in a safe environment.

The Marysville Joint Unified School District spans approximately 75 miles across Yuba County and includes 23 K-12 school communities in the valley and the foothills serving over 10,000 students. The district is located approximately 45 minutes from Sacramento and approximately two hours from San Francisco. Marysville is located at the confluence of two rivers which drain the watersheds containing the most productive gold mining region in Northern California.

As the depot for the Northern mines it became an important early center of commerce, growing into one of the largest cities in California's first decade of existence, before the gold was all mined. Marysville lies in the region of northern California identified as a rich farming community.

Under the direction of the Director of Wellness or assigned supervisor, the School Social Worker specializes in working with students, their parents, teacher, and school administrators to help students cope with a wide range of issues and perform well academically. Is responsible for assisting with intervention therapy, and consultation/outreach with the goal of facilitating and promoting appropriate behavioral health and academic growth for all students in the district. The School Social Worker will typically work full-time in an office with a school but may need to travel to serve multiple schools in the area.
