School counselors create systemic change by implementing school counseling programs that emphasize school reform and show results. The ASCA National Model: A Framework for School Counseling Programs gives school counselors the tools to create such programs. This presentation will highlight the National Model and provide data from schools where school counseling programs have influenced student achievement. Attendees will learn about the different kinds of data available to them and how they can collect and analyze it to create actions plans and results reports. Counselors use data to change systems, challenge the status quo, and support accountability.
