Example Response (Response Needs to be writen just like the response below No copying)
RISE Feedback:
REFLECT: I concur with “Action plans should reflect the type of services that are needed and have an idea of the expected outcome of the services” because it is in line with Hatch and Hartline’s intentional school counseling guidelines in regards to determining students needs.
INQUIRE: Can you further explain what “closing-the-gap action plans” are?
SUGGEST: I encourage you to revisit Hatch and Hartline’s MTMDSS tier interventions in order to add a citation that would illustrate your example on bullying prevention efforts.
ELEVATE: What if you re-purposed “For example, after a needs assessment, the school is having problems with bullying” as “Following Trish Hatch’s MTMDSS tier based interventions, if the school is having problems with bullying, after a needs assessment, we could… citation…” for a more weighted argument?

Response 1- Shashona
Describe your experiences with prevention and/or intervention strategies. (i.e., motivation, student efficacy, time management, study skills, constructive problem solving, and teacher-student rapport)
Last week, I sat in on my first SART (School Attendance Review Team) meeting! Which is where students who were truant/too many unexcused absences had to attend with their parents. It was pretty intense on one end of the spectrum there was an irate parent who didn’t understand why a family emergency wasn’t excused but a religious holiday was to a father who was shocked and disappointed with his daughter. The latter scenario really touched me, because we were able to witness a parent doing everything they could (dropping his child off early for school so they wouldn’t be late) to having the appropriate attire for P.E. ( yet their child is still not dressing). We looked at the student’s grades and saw that she was failing all of her classes but one— so we decided to intervene by scheduling weekly check-ins and having her complete a weekly progress report to be shown to her father every week. Before we met with the student yesterday, we looked at her grades and saw that she was improving and hadn’t had any tardies or unexcused absences. When we met with her, we were able to inquire as to what was motivating her to change and where she was still needing support. We continued to probe about her thoughts on her different classes and teachers; inquiring as to which class or teacher was her favorite. She shared with us the classes that she was struggling in and that she had planned to stay after school to get tutoring from those teachers. We’ll be meeting with her weekly until the end of the semester to ensure that she is staying on top of her classes and attendance. We’re feeling optimistic as she has already shown great improvement in just 1 week! Right now we’re just trying to figure out how to get her excited for Chorus, which she doesn’t like participating in and so is really affecting her grade. She told us she doesn’t like singing and thinks the songs they do in chorus are “lame”. So we tried to figure out what kind of music she liked and offered that she try putting a spin on the Chorus songs from the point of view of songs that she does like. I’d be open to any advice! I feel hopeful that the more we meet with her the more she will open up to us.

Response 2- Kayla
Describe experiences related to any of the following: core counseling theories
My school district is currently in its second year of working with ASCA training staff to have each school become RAMP (Recognized ASCA Model Program) certified by the counselor. RAMP is a recognition program for particular schools, not for districts or school counselors specifically. The idea is the implementation of ASCA National Model framework to demonstrate proof of direct and indirect assistance to students, program design, and improved student outcomes in the school counseling program. By submitting an application for RAMP, schools can assess their school counseling program, identify areas for development, and strengthen the program’s efforts to support student success. I have been able to attend the training workshops and help my counselor with submitting work to the ASCA portal. So far, we have worked on our school data summary, annual student outcome goals, closing the gap action plan, classroom and group mindsets and behaviors action plan, and use of time data. Thankfully ASCA provides templates that are required and books to help guide us through the process while also providing us feedback on what we submitted. The next part we will be working on is an advisory Counsil agenda for our annual administrative conference. I feel like once we get into the mindset of collecting the data and in the mode of doing these steps annually it will come more naturally because it does seem overwhelming right now. It reminds us to be accountable in this profession and helps us to make sure we are aligned with our school improvement plan which helps to make admin and the school understand how the student services department is supporting our school improvement goals and contributing to them.
