Instead, to get the most out of student learning, stakeholders across all environments should have input. These stakeholders include parents, community members, lawmakers, school officials, and the like.

How should it be developed? jess_mccolgan https://padlet.com/jess_mccolgan/ulavz2cd2k6b/wish/267963840 Curriculum in the classroom focuses on what skills and content material should be taught within each subject area.

School counseling curriculum is designed to benefit all students in preparation for their futures. It centers around  three areas essential for students’ growth and development: Academic Development, Career Development, and Personal/Social Development. 

Curriculum should be developed and/or reviewed each year by a team of teachers, administrators, community members, school board members, and students.

It is also my role to create a counseling curriculum that entails helping students learn, grow, and develop socially/emotionally, as well as prepare them for life after school - making sure all content aligns with the counseling department and school's mission and vision. #college #career #mentalhealth

I aim to guide my students in the right direction, provide them with strategies/resources they need, and encourage them daily to  reach and achieve their full potential.
