The author adopted the analytical-descriptive approach and applied the questionnaire to (120) social workers in public high schools in Riyadh. The results showed that the means of the community aspects were ranked first. The roles of the social worker with students, teachers, and guardians were high, suggesting the importance of these roles in handling and confront the psychological problems experienced by students.
