Guidance & Counseling Staffing

• • • • Professional school counselors serve a vital role in maximizing student success. Through leadership, advocacy, and collaboration, professional school counselors promote equity and access to rigorous educational experiences for all students. Professional school counselors support a safe learning environment and work to safeguard the human rights of all members of the school community and address the needs of all students through culturally relevant prevention and intervention programs that are a part of a comprehensive school counseling program.

The American School Counselor Association recommends a counselor-to student ratio of 1:250.

The Role of the Professional School Counselor, Revised 2009, ASCA

Statement from the Joint Task Force on Basic Education Finance:

We are aware of the state’s financial circumstances and the difficult choices facing state leaders. However, the Task Force believes that all current K-12 funding should be retained. Numerous studies have demonstrated that the state’s K-12 system is underfunded. To make cuts to the education of the state’s children would be contrary to the paramount duty that is so clearly stated in our Washington State Constitution.

Dominant Power Themes and School Counselor Leadership Roles

Position or Jurisdictional Power – HB 1670 states that school counselors are to plan, organize and deliver CSCPs.

Referent or Relational Power – Because of our training in facilitative skills, we can influence others through positive relationships • Caring Power – It is difficult to deny a passionate educator who is advocating to level the playing field for all students.

Transformational or Developmental Power – By our involvement with school improvement teams we can enhance it’s effectiveness .

Dominant Power Themes and School Counselor Leadership Roles (con’t.)

Connection Power—We need to connect with those in the position to positively influence the future.

Reward Power—We can recognize those who support Navigation and CSCP goals.

Expert Power—If we know what we are talking about, others will respect our expertise.

The Transformed School Counselor, Stone, C. & Dahir, C,2006

Challenges to Developing Strong CGCPs

• The weight of tradition • Resistance to change • Burden of non-school-counseling-related tasks

N. Gysbers, ASCA School Counselor, Nov/Dec 2005

Overcoming Tradition

• Embed your current approach to program and services delivery within the comprehensive program

Reckon with Change

Realize that change is not a one-time event but continuous • Districts and schools must build in sufficient time and other resources to support the change

Focus On-Time / On-Task

Write down the program!

• Calendar planned activities and services covering the four components • Streamline school counselor involvement in inappropriate tasks • Displace inappropriate activities
