The Whitesboro CSD will develop and maintain a counseling program advisory council.
Membership will include representative stakeholders.
The advisory council shall meet no less than twice a year for the purpose of reviewing the comprehensive developmental school counseling/guidance program plan and advising on the implementation of the school counseling/guidance program.
The purpose of the council is to provide feedback on program goals (developed and explained by the school counselor), review program results (based on data presentations by the school counselors), make recommendations about the school counseling program, and serve as advocates for the program.
The charge of the CAC is to address key paradigm shifts that pertain to quality control (doing the right things), quality assurance (ensuring what is done meets the needs of students and school community) and strategic positioning.
Recommendations shall be formulated, documented and made available to the school administration and counseling staff to solidify a plan for completion. Further, the recommendations and corresponding action plan shall be shared with the superintendent, who shall then share said documentation with the Board of Education.
The CAC will provide the district plan to the Board of Education annually, providing an overview of progress and plans for continued work of the CAC.
