Introduction
Shelby County School Counselors Care
• School Counseling is in Shelby County Schools and is
designed to meet the needs of the students.
• Counselors work with students, parents, teachers,
administrators, and community.
• Students can be referred to a counselor by a parent, a
student, a teacher, an administrator, or by him/herself.
• If a parent wants to refer their child, the process is
simple—just call the school and talk with the
counselor or schedule an appointment for a face-to-
face meeting with the counselor.
• All school counselors in Shelby County Schools have at
least a Masters Degree in School Counseling.
• Shelby County School Counselors are available to help
students.

Rationale
The rationale for counseling programs in schools is to be more responsive to the challenges that students, parents, teachers,
and the community face today and in the future. The emphasis is on reaching all students with a school counseling program
that is based on a clearly designed program emphasizing standards, activities, needs assessments, program assessments, and
procedures. The school counseling program incorporates a team approach, performance indicators, deficiency remediation,
and systematic implementation.
To insure the implementation of a comprehensive school counseling program, each school must address the following issues:
• School counseling reaching 100% of the students.
• A plan for addressing student needs.
• A plan for accountability.
• A plan for needs and program assessment.
• Programs based on “student needs” rather than “scheduling” needs.
Assumptions about a comprehensive school counseling program are as follows:
• It serves all the students.
• It helps students function more effectively.
• It is an integral part of the total educational program.
• It addresses performance expectations and performance indicators.
• It is correlated to other subjects.
• It guarantees the student access to the counselor and the counselor access to the student.
• It assists students with their educational, career, and personal and social development.
• It provides developmental, as well as, prevention and intervention services.
• It is continually revised through program assessment and needs assessment.

SCS Philosophy of School Counseling
We believe in the worth, dignity, and uniqueness of each individual. We also believe that each school has
unique needs. Therefore, each school counseling program is designed to address the specific needs of their
students and community.
The counseling program is coordinated in conjunction with services provided by social workers, school
psychologists, administrators, the school faculty, special education staff, and the Central Office. With this in
mind the Shelby County Schools’ Counseling Program is also coordinated with National School Counselors’
Standards and the State Counseling Model.
This model has four major components—
• School Counseling Curriculum,
Individual Planning,
Responsive Services, and
Program Support.
Also included in the counseling program are needs assessment and ongoing program assessment. Finally, the
counseling program takes advantage of community resources to provide workshops for teachers and
counselors, speakers for parents and students, and career awareness opportunities.

Objectives and Goals of School Counseling
The objectives for the counseling program are based on National School Counselors’ Standards.
The goal of these objectives is to help students:
1. To acquire the attitudes, knowledge, and skills which contribute to effective learning in school and across their
life span.
2. To complete school with the academic preparation essential to choose from a wide range of substantial post
secondary options, including college.
3. To understand the relationship of academics to the world of work, to life at home, and in the community.
4. To acquire the skills to investigate the world of work in relation to knowledge of self and to make informed
career decisions.
5. To employ strategies to achieve future career success and satisfaction.
6. To understand the relationship among personal qualities, education and training, and the world of work.
7. To acquire the attitudes, knowledge, and interpersonal skills to help them understand and respect self and
others.
8. To make decisions, set goals, and take necessary action to achieve goals.
9. To understand safety and survival skills.
10. To utilize technology to enhance learning.
