Developing and Managing Your School Guidance Program

Guidance and counseling is evolving from a school support service to being an integral partner in educational reform, according to Gysbers (educational, school, and counseling psychology, U. of Missouri-Columbia) and Henderson (former director of guidance with a Texas school district). Following an historical overview and case for this process requiring the field to have its own subject- matter base, they extend the model presented in the 2000 edition for implementing a comprehensive program. Steps entail planning, designing, implementing, evaluating, and enhancing. Appendices offer sample ethical standards, program policies, and forms. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
