Can we talk about how/whether to inform parents every time we have an individual meeting with students over Google Meet? (Thinking about elementary level here.) I would normally not inform parents every time I checked in with a student in my office, but this feels a lot different, as the student will be bringing my face into their home via their iPad and parents might overhear conversations and wonder what is going on (especially for elementary students). It would be nice to have some general guidance on this, as well as to hear what other counselors have done and what worked well/didn't.

Would it make more sense for schools that are K-8 (split K-4/5-8) to have academic advising in 4th grade so that the Elementary Counselor has a grade as well instead of Middle school starting with 2?

I would like to hear from high schools - how they are thinking to manage the core counseling curricula for Q1.  I am worried that there Career is not included in Q1. We have many seniors who are working to complete CommonApp by early deadline in Nov.  With scheduling, Xello and just settling in to the new year,  how will schools interface with their seniors most efficiently to support their applications?

The 'suggested' 3 hr district training on DL 2.0 mentioned that they want teachers to do a new structure on SeeSaw where they use google docs to create a clickable daily schedule rather than activity based instruction. They also said specialists would have a separate SeeSaw class that teachers would Link to in this clickable daily schedule in the student journal. This seems require a major change to how we used SeeSaw last spring. What are the new expectations for us on SeeSaw? Will we have our own separate classes? Will we talk about the fact that we can't just create content in the same way we learned last spring?

I’m wondering if we have a better system for contacting parents under DL 2.0 then we did last spring?  Using Google Meets to do phone calls to parents doesn’t work well.  The number shows up on their phone as an out of state number, and there is no way for them to return the call.

Is this a completely new school?  Do students remain enrolled in their "bricks and mortar" school?  Do we have counselors who will provide guidance and support for this new school or do the students remain part of their hs counselor's caseload.   I have had some inquiries from families who are interested but confused about how to register for this....it seems the deadline was Aug 14th - -but info about it was presented only very shortly before.
thank you for any specifics.

During DL, our middle school designated a "Counseling" class for students on the second B day of each week. This was the identified time that students were to complete lessons provided by counselors on their PLP course in Schoology. How are counselors planning to engage students in counseling content this year as we start DL? I am wondering if it could be unified among grade levels (elementary, middle, high).

Having the PLP course last year wasn't particularly effective/useful for my students. Many of them felt stressed out by the material with assignments/quizzes. Do we have any places that would be a counseling specific virtual classroom/office? Having a dedicated space for that would be incredibly helpful.
