Abstract: School counselors are often under-utilized, but they can be a huge asset as schools embark on the long road to recovery from COVID-19. Research repeatedly finds that when school counselors deliver comprehensive programming, student outcomes improve. In schools that allocate counselors' time wisely, counselors may spend their days providing individual and group counseling sessions, leading developmental lessons in a classroom, consulting with parents or caregivers on an intervention, analyzing attendance data to develop outreach plans, or offering early college and career awareness programming. However, poor working conditions--including enormous caseloads and extensive noncounseling tasks--often compromise counselors' abilities to deliver on what students need most. The authors outline three possible strategies for teachers and administrators to draw on school counselors' professional skillsets: clarifying counselors' roles, building teacher-counselor relationships, and advocating for improved counselor working environments.
