This study examined a national sample of school counselors and their ability to implement the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) National Model. Percentage of time spent in noncounseling duties, perceived level of principal support, and principals’ knowledge of school counselors’ appropriate roles were statistically significant predictor variables for school counselors’ ability to implement the ASCA National Model. We discuss implications for the school counseling profession.

This study investigated the types of supervisory activities provided to school counselor trainees. The researchers examined the responses of 73 practicing school counselors from the Southern region who were members of the American School Counselor Association. The supervisory activities provided to trainees working in a traditional school counseling program were compared with trainees performing in a developmental program as recommended in the ASCA National Model®. The researchers also examined the years of experience as a school counselor, the amount of training received in supervision, differences in supervision at various grade levels, and the principal's understanding of the school counselor's role when working in a traditional or a transformed school counseling model. Implications for school counselors are included.

This study examined the level of school counselor job satisfaction and implementation of comprehensive school counseling programs in secondary schools in one state. Participants included 103 secondary school counselors selected using a cluster sampling of Michigan public school districts. The Job in General (JIG) scale was used to measure their job satisfaction. The Comprehensive School Counseling Implementation Measure (CSCIM), based on the ASCA National Model, was used to measure the level of implementation of a comprehensive school counseling program in their schools. The individual items “administrative support” and “facilitating communication between staff” on the CSCIM showed high correlations with job satisfaction, while moderate to high correlations were found in the items “serving all students,” “clearly written and defined program philosophy,” and “creating time for planning and evaluating the program.” This article discusses limitations of this study and suggested directions for further research.

To introduce restorative practices (RP) to the school counseling literature, the authors explicate the hand in glove fit between the RP model for schools and school counselor identity and scope of practice. Drawing from the American School Counselor Association’s (ASCA) National Model, ASCA’s Ethical Standards for School Counselors, multitiered systems of support (MTSS), and the school counseling literature, the authors make the case for the profession of school counseling to take up RP and integrate the model into school counseling research, theory, and practice.
