I will also send out a mass email to all teachers in the 10th-12 grade so they are able to inform their students. I will have a sign up sheet outside my door, and will encourage parents to talk to their student about the group as well by sending a letter home with each eligible student. The last plan is to announce the group on the daily announcements everyday until the group is filled. ]]> 2019-12-01 21:08:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418212923 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418214217 2019-12-01 21:15:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418214217 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418214978 Students who have signed up for the group will be met with individually in order to take a pre-group assessment. The counselor will determine which students are in most need of attending the group at that time. In order to determine student readiness the counselor will individually interview the student and see why they have chosen to participate in the group. The counselor will be sure to determine if the student will be able to make group meetings, and meet expectations. The counselor will be sure to select students who have shown maturity and are able to show respect for others since a majority of the group will be interacting and listening to speakers and guests. ]]> 2019-12-01 21:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418214978 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418217355 Once 15 students have been selected to participate in the group the counselor will send a consent form home with the students. Also included will be the group description, and the purpose of the group. ]]> 2019-12-01 21:36:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418217355 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418218742 These are the rules that are set before the students sign their informed consent form. They will be discussed individually and again as a group during the first session.

1. Be respectful to all guest speakers and peers. 
2. Complete all assignments that are given to you. 
3. Do not break confidentiality
4. Do not speak while our guests are giving presentations. 
5. Give notice is missing a session. ]]> 2019-12-01 21:46:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418218742 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418220047 Stage 1: In order to build trust with the group members we will begin with introductions, and small group activities in which they will have to help each other. I will also give background about my journey of life after high school and finding the right career and schooling for myself in order to be relatable to my students. 

Stage 2: In order to keep group members working together I will save time after each session for group work and a short presentation on a selected school by students for their peers. 

Stage 3: In order to have sufficient group closure I will have students compare their answers to the survey they took before the group started and after the sessions have finished in order to see how much they have learned. ]]> 2019-12-01 21:54:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418220047 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418221771 The most beneficial leadership style for this group will be the transformational leadership style. This style will be the best because it allows the counselor to motivate and inspire the students to attend some kind of post secondary education institution. This kind of leadership style is highly correlated with helping other reach their full potential. ]]> 2019-12-01 22:05:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418221771 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418222671 2019-12-01 22:11:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418222671 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418222861 In this group some of Yalom's curative factors that may be present are: 

• Universality-The students will see that it is not only them who are having a hard time discovering what they want to have as a career. They will also discover that they are not the only ones who are struggling with life after high school.
• Direct advice: The students will be given advice and help from the counselor and other professionals who come to the sessions to meet with the students about different fields of possible careers. They will be given suggestions of schools and other resources.

Sec. 33.005 (4) states that system support to support he efforts of teachers, staff, parents, and other members of the community in promoting the educational and career development of students. 

This supports counselors by allowing them to conduct groups in order to better help their students navigate their career and post secondary educational goals.

Section 33.009 (b) the school shall develop and make available postsecondary education and career counseling academies for school counselors and other post secondary advisors. 

This supports the role as a school counselor because it allows the school counselor to conduct sessions with students in order to advise students on careers and education. ]]> 2019-12-01 22:36:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418226077 jvaldez42 https://padlet.com/jvaldez42/82s4xbgxfym1/wish/418257862
