Session 25: School Counselors Practice With the Brain in Mind
A large suburban school district has taken a comprehensive approach to college access, readiness, and planning. Beginning in middle school, students and parents are coached through the eight components of college-readiness counseling through a series of presentations, individual advisement sessions, family sessions, written materials, and a transition program partnership through the local community college that works with underrepresented populations on raising college aspirations. Workshop attendees will receive copies of the written materials and descriptions of the activities involved.
Presenters:
Sharon Sevier, president, Missouri School Counselor Association, and director of guidance and counseling, Rockwood School District, Arnold, Mo.; and
Beth Collier, college admission/career specialist, Rockwood Summit High School, Arnold, Mo.
