Program Foundation
The program foundation lays the groundwork for our comprehensive approach to counseling at Budlong. It consists of our program mission, vision, goals, and related ASCA competencies/indicators. The program mission provides tangible insight into our roles as counselors within the Budlong environment and our specific strategies for intervention. Our program vision details are core beliefs regarding educational quality and student achievement – it provides the road map for our future growth and development as a program. The goals represent the actionable and attainable steps we plan to take to improve student outcomes over the next academic year. We will re-evaluate our goals annually based on data and insight from our programmatic interventions and administrative consultations. In order to provide structure and accountability to our program, we have aligned our goals with specific student indicators and competencies provided by the American School Counseling Association (ASCA). The indicators and competences are directly tied to the three ASCA domains: academic, career, and personal/social. |
