First Steps First!What Does It Mean To Say That
School Counseling Is A Program?
A shift in thinking that explains school counseling as a program rather than a position within schools. A program can generally be defined as “A coherent sequence of activities based upon a validated set of competencies” (WV, 2011).
School counselors design, implement and evaluate a comprehensive array of services that include both preventative and developmental services to develop essential competencies in all students.
C. Dahir, 11/13
![Page 11: School Counselor Circle Manila, Philippines November 14, 2013 Carol Dahir, Ed.D](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110103/56814325550346895daf8ede/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Program Evaluation?
The program must also be evaluated to ensure that desired student learning outcomes (SLOs) are achieved.
Professional standards that generally describe necessary student competencies or student learner outcomes (e.g. Philippine National Standards) and the particular needs of students in a given school are used to design the SLO’s.

Analyze the data element. You can use percentages, averages, raw scores, quartiles, or stanines. You can aggregate or disaggregate the data to better understand which students are meeting success. You can disaggregate by gender, race, ethnicity, socio-economic status or in a multitude of ways to look at student groupings.

Results: Restate your baseline data. State where your data is now. Did you meet your goal?
Baseline data: Results (data now):
Met Goal: Yes____ No ____
Questions to Consider as you examine results and revise your MEASURE:
1. Which strategies had a positive impact on the data?2. Which strategies should be replaced, changed, added? 3. Based on what you have learned, how will you revise Step
Four “Stakeholders-Unite?”4. How did your MEASURE contribute to systemic change(s) in
your school and/or in your community?
