Nearly 120,000 school counselors provide students with academic, college/career and social/emotional development. This week, we celebrate all school counselors. #NSCW23 @WeAreASCA

Since 1965, ASCA has recommended a student-to-school counselor ratio of 250:1. According to data from the U.S. Dept. of Education National Center for Education Statistics, the 2021–2022 national student-to-school-counselor ratio was 408:1! #NSCW23 @ASCATweets

Historically, the term “guidance counselor” was used to refer to counselors working in the schools. This term has evolved to “school counselor” as the scope of duties has changed. #NSCW23 @WeAreASC
