Pay Attention and Get Involved

High quality educators is a national priority

A clearly-defined and rigorous counselor
evaluation system is one way to
demonstrate that we are highly-qualified

We must pay attention to what is going on
and get involved with the change process so
that we can define our accountability system
versus having others define it for us
Final Thoughts

School counselors need their own
rigorous evaluation system that assesses
their unique contribution to student
success and school reform

The evaluation system should be simple,
elegant and meaningful

The future of K-12 school counseling
depends on our ability to demonstrate
our worth to others
