Welcome to Our Center
The Center for School Counseling Outcome Research
is dedicated to improving the practice of school counseling by
developing the research base that is necessary for responsible
and effective practice. The Center provides national leadership
in the measurement and evaluation of the outcomes of school counseling
interventions and programs. In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,
the Center helps K-12 leaders and practitioners use research findings
and methods to improve school counseling practice by enabling them
to set standards, establish benchmarks, implement evidence-based
interventions, measure student learning outcomes, and evaluate
program effectiveness.
