Do most of the Lakewood elementary or high schools have a psychologist on staff? If not, which ones do/don't?
Thanks!

Depends on what you mean by "psychologist." For testing, they either have on staff or have a service. Not for therapy.

Most don't. They do have onsite social workers through agencies like Catapult, Tender Touch etc

Something tells me you're not familiar with Lakewood schools, and the lack of a full-time onsite psychologist is likely not going to be the last major surprise for you...

Right they are trained social workers. Some of them are very good.

Many have a social worker and a coordinator in charge of services and testing.

When you say psychologist do you actually mean someone with a doctorate or a someone with a degree in school psychology (master's degree), or are you using that interchangeably with guidance counselor/therapist?
