Blast from the Past! A Different Understanding of School Counseling Data

In this episode of the School for School Counselors Podcast, we take an unusual perspective on school counseling program data: how it's collected, what we do with it once we have it, and why it's important in the first place.Folks with a little more life experience will giggle as we walk down memory lane a bit and pull back the curtain for our more youthful school counselors to give a glimpse of what life- and documentation- used to look like "back in the day."If you're struggling to get motivated to begin or sustain a data-driven school counseling program, you're going to want to give this episode a listen.Our goal at School for School Counselors is to help school counselors stay on fire, make huge impacts for students, and catalyze change for our roles through grassroots advocacy and collaboration.
