School Counseling
Areas of Support
School counselor support services and professional learning are provided by Heartland AEA through multiple opportunities:
- School counselors participate in a needs assessment every two years to determine professional learning needs, and every effort is made to match professional learning to those needs.
- Most importantly, counselors are encouraged to meet on an ongoing basis throughout the year to study their current plans, analyze data and align curriculum.
- The Transformed School Counselor Video explores the role of the transformed school counselor and how they could and should be used in the school setting.
- A school counseling email group is maintained to communicate resources and supports.
Email Group
