Abstract	Pediatric cancer is the second leading cause of death among children ages 1-14 (Whitehead et al., 2016). Approximately 10,500 children ages 1-14 and 5090 adolescents ages 15-19 have been diagnosed with cancer in 2021 (American Cancer Society, 2021). An estimated 28% of childhood cases and 13% of adolescent patients will be diagnosed explicitly with Leukemia (American Cancer Society, 2021). Leukemia is a broad term that encompasses the malignant disease of bone marrow and other structures responsible for blood production (Olin et al., 2018). Children and adolescents experiencing pediatric leukemia often undergo treatment that produces biological, psychosocial, and cognitive impacts. Due to the occurrence of this disease in school-aged children and the wide-ranging consequences they face, school psychologists may be called upon to work with students and their families while they go through treatment during school-aged years. This article will discuss pediatric leukemia, treatment options, long-term impacts of treatment for patients, and considerations for working with children in the school system. (As Provided).
