Certified School Counselors
The Role of the School Counselor: The Seminole County Public Schools (SCPS) Comprehensive School Counseling Plan ensures that School Counselors have support to implement programming that meets the needs of all students. Guided by the vision, mission, and strategic plan of SCPS, School Counselors will establish and maintain the Conditions for Learning and provide innovative programming that leads to high academic performance, knowledge, and skill acquisition through customized pathways in a safe and caring environment.
The SCPS Comprehensive School Counseling Plan defines the roles and responsibilities of the School Counselor. It details the elements of a comprehensive school counseling program to support the design and implementation of programming based on research and evidence-based best practices. The American School Counseling Association (ASCA) National Model and the Florida School Counseling Framework inform the comprehensive plan. This plan makes school counseling services available to all students as a required element essential to the SCPS goals of excellence and equity.
