Remember that demand for a school social worker will not be as high as a teacher. Have you thought about Special Education or ESL as a concentration? Those kids usually have lots of "needs" that a good teacher can really influence.

Also, a social worker is a job that is in demand at the hospitals, retirement homes, etc. Pay is not usually more than about $35k. The reward is in the "giving".
