Dear Parents, Teachers, Students, and Support Staff,
Welcome to my website! The purpose of this site is to provide school staff, parents, and students easy access to articles, information, and other resources on a variety of topics relevant to the practice of school psychology. Some of the resources are ones that I have created or adopted and others are links or documents available from other online sources. The site is constantly under construction so please check back often to see my latest updates. Feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or site content suggestions (non-emergencies only please!).
Enjoy,
Mrs. Shirkey

About Me:My name is Taylor Shirkey and I am from Charlotte, NC. I am a former college cheerleader and current mom of two. I received my BS in Psychology from Wofford College before returning to the Charlotte area to attend graduate school at Winthrop University. I have my Masters and Specialist degrees in School Psychology from Winthrop and have been in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg school system since 2013.
While I have worked in a number of schools/grade levels across the district, I am currently serving the staff, students, and families at Olde Providence and Beverly Woods Elementary schools. Outside of the regular school day, I also serve on the executive board for the Metrolina Association of Psychologists in the Schools (MAPS), a local advocacy organization for school psychologists. I love my job because I am able to work so closely with parents, teachers, students and other professionals every day! As a school psychologist, I wear many hats and no two days are ever the same. Some of those hats include:
