  1. “We need to put counselors front and center because they are crucial to the mission of schools but currently they are overburdened and underappreciated.” Commissioner David P. Driscoll August, 2004

  2. School Counselors and what they do are conspicuously missing from discussions of school reform initiatives. This omission is an enormous mistake, especially when counselors hold the keys to many students’ dreams and aspirations. School Counselors must be incorporated into school reform as leaders who are engaged in system-wide change to ensure student success. Reese House, The Education Trust

  3. In The Massachusetts Model • School Counseling programs are standards-based (MA Career Development Benchmarks) • Interventions are delivered to benefit all students • Standards based curriculum is planned, documented and taught in groups and individually • Students receive ongoing assistance with education/career planning with the goal of informed postsecondary transition • School counselors are accountable for student achievement outcomes and school-related behavior

  4. Key Program Components of Massachusetts Model Delivery
