School Counseling

We recognize that a comprehensive and coherent school counseling program features counselors who advocate for ensuring equity in student access to all of the school’s educational opportunities.

We are pleased to share the following resources:

Case Studies: These case studies feature key advice for building a quality school counseling program from the following award-winning schools:

• Case Study Academia Maria Reina, San Juan, P.R.
• Case Study St. Francis Preparatory School, Fresh Meadows, N.Y.

Program Evaluation Tool: Specific criterion for schools to use as a program evaluation tool or to apply for a Program of Distinction in School Counseling, which is awarded to schools with exemplary programs in a specific subject area.

School Contacts: Contact information for member schools that have demonstrated excellence in school counseling. We encourage you to use other schools as a resource. Set up a time to tour a program and learn from each other’s experiences. Ask questions. Get to know each other. Learn!
