Welcome Ola Edwards Community School!
My name is Mrs. Vanessa Sanchez
I am so excited to be joining your family this school year as your School Social Worker.
I completed my Bachelors in Criminal Justice at New Jersey City University
and received my Master of Social Work from Fordham University.
I have been in the mental and behavioral field for seven wonderful years providing
individual and family therapy as well as behavior modification.
My role here at OECS will be similar as I will be here to support children
and family during challenging situations.
I will also be providing group counseling such as:
Girls Empowerment and Boys Social Skills.
You will also find me working along side teachers and staff to support student learning.
If you or your child needs assistance please feel free to contact me at
