Lapan, Richard T.; Whitcomb, Sara A.; Aleman, Nancy M.
Professional School Counseling, v16 n2 p117-124 Dec 2012
Results connect the implementation of the college and career counseling components of a comprehensive school counseling program and lower student-to-school-counselor ratios to a reduction in suspension rates and disciplinary incidents for Connecticut high school students. Principal ratings of college and career counseling services provided in their school extended benefits for students to include better attendance and graduation rates, as well as lower disciplinary incidents and suspension rates. This article highlights the importance of college and career counseling services and smaller ratios for promoting student success. (Contains 2 tables and 1 figure.)
