School Counseling

Abstract

Ensuring academic, career, personal, and social success for all students defines the school counselor's role in the school and community. Lewis & Clark's School Counseling programs prepare well-qualified school counselors who will deliver comprehensive school counseling services based on national standards in these areas of development. Candidates come to perceive education as a community endeavor requiring the best collaborative efforts of students, educators, families, and community members. Program participants develop close relationships with practitioners and faculty in small class settings while learning how to promote this collaboration through leadership and advocacy.
