Social Worker Message

Dear Dorothy Dodds Families,

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Hilda Cervantes and I am the School Social Worker at Dorothy Dodds Elementary School. I have been working for Moorhead Schools for eight years. One of my roles is to be the link between home and school. As school social workers, we provide services to students, staff and families.

Services to Parents/Families:

  • Work with parents to facilitate their support in their children's school adjustment.
  • Alleviate family stress to enable the child to function more effectively in school and community. 
  • Assist parents to access programs available to students with special needs.
  • Assist parents in accessing and utilizing school and community resources.

I am committed to partnering with families to help students have a successful and positive school year. If you have any questions, concerns or would like help navigating community resources please do not hesitate to call (218) 284-1316 or email me at hcervantes@moorheadschools.org 

Sincerely,
Hilda Cervantes
School Social Worker
