The School Counseling Services Program design, development, and implementation initially occurred during the 2005-2006 academic year.  Services were developed and provided in Gadsden County—West Gadsden High School (program #1) and duplicated in Taylor County—Steinhatchee (Program #2).  Program #1 and Program #2 were developed using a standardized program guideline, the counseling services program proposal and protocol, used as a baseline document for all school counseling program implementations in districts who wish to contract with LaRose.

 

Assessment, evaluation and analysis of both programs have been completed, with findings that support the use of the counseling services program in other academic settings.  Efficacy, or program success, has been realized in 80-90% of all areas assessed for program year one in both districts; efficacy has varied in the subsequent years with overall program success indicated.  Program success, even with results that are classified as “varied” (less than an 80-90%efficacy rate), is realized in multiple year evaluations, between two different school districts (with various demographics), and with  different ages of youth served—and even with the use of two different onsite providers.

 

Two North Florida School Districts have approved the school counseling services program every year since 2005—even when the direct service provider has changed.  The program is available for implementation and/or consultation and/or full service delivery to other districts who desire similar services (contact LaRose via email to schedule a consultation).
