Professional School Counseling, v12 n6 p488-494 Aug 2009
The statewide Utah Model for Comprehensive Counseling and Guidance: K-12 Programs (Utah State Office of Education, 2008) began implementation in 1988. Beginning with the 2004-2005 school year, data collection has been required for all schools collecting program funds. This article reviews research data from three Utah schools--one elementary school, one junior high school, and one high school. Each review details the intended behavior, desired results, guidance activity, evaluation method, and study results. A brief history of Utah's comprehensive counseling and guidance program is provided and specific recommendations for districtwide or statewide data collection are provided. (Contains 4 figures.)
