| Abstract: | This brief is one in a series aimed at providing K-12 education decision makers and advocates with an evidence base to ground discussions about how to best serve students during and following the novel coronavirus pandemic. It addresses one central question: How can schools and districts ensure that all students benefit from school counseling programs? In order to answer this question, the brief breaks down the issue into three points: (1) Access to school counselors improves academic outcomes, social-emotional development, and postsecondary enrollment; (2) The students who could benefit the most from counselors typically have the least access to them; and (3) During COVID-19, virtual work and added non-counseling duties have further limited students' access to school counselors while student needs have accumulated. Based on these points, the brief provides four strategies to consider and three strategies to avoid. |
