School Counselors

Role of School Counselors

Counselors in a school setting promote and enhance the learning process by implementing an evidence-based school counseling program in alignment with the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) National Model. As a member of the education team, counselors help every student achieve academic success, navigate personal and social development and plan for meaningful careers.

Counselors work together with parents, students, educators, and community professionals to ensure success in learning and preparation to take on life’s challenges.
