BRIEF SUMMARY
A comprehensive school counseling program is an integral component of a school’s mission. Comprehensive school counseling programs are driven by student data, are a collaborative effort between school counselors, families, community-stakeholders and other educators, and create an environment resulting in a positive impact on student achievement. The American School Counselor Association’s (ASCA) National Model is the most widely recognized model for school counseling programs.
KEY POINTS
- Comprehensive school counseling programs support and promote student achievement and standardize the measurement of program effectiveness.
- Programs include a systematic and planned program delivery involving all students and enhance the learning process.
SHARED WISDOM
