Abstract: Professional school counselors find themselves working in school organizations that are antiquated and are not a natural fit to the actual work of the counselors. However, lessons being learned from the new sciences and open systems perspectives may shed a great deal of light as to how schools can be restructured in order to best utilize the talents of professional school counselors. This article will begin by showing how schools are currently structured and subsequently flawed. This introduction will be followed by a brief description of the lessons of the new sciences. We conclude by discussing the implications and applications of these new lessons as they relate to school organization and to the work of school counselors.
