Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
Since its first publication in 1997, The School Counselor's Book of Lists has become the go-to reference for savvy school counselors. This second edition of the classic resource offers a wealth of timely and much-needed information, written in concise and user-friendly language.
A quick, easy guide for finding information on almost any topic pertinent to school counselors, the book covers everything from writing student assessments and dealing with school crises to setting budgets and running effective meetings. In the past decade the role of school counselors has changed significantly; this thoroughly revised and updated edition contains information that reflects those changes, and includes:
A section on the ASCA National Model with lists referring to each element and theme of the Model
An expansion of references and resources in each section, including Internet resources for easy reader access
A range of new topics, such as working with students who self-injure and working with students whose parents have been deployed
Integration of material on common topics or themes for easy reference and use
An emphasis on data collection and results reporting as a critical role for school counselors and as a powerful tool that shows the impact of school counseling programs and services on student success
The School Counselor's Book of Lists is packed with useful tools and resources to help counselors implement comprehensive and effective school counseling programs.

Great Lists, but many out-of-date resources,
By A Customer
This review is from: The School Counselor's Book of Lists (J-B Ed: Book of Lists) (Spiral-bound)
While I like the format, content, and applicability of the MANY lists included in this book, when searching for various sources listed as "additional information" I found many of the Online URLs don't work or have changed and books are not available or are out-of-print. Although this is a useful resource material, I'd like to see the "additional information" sources updated, then it would be one of the best resources I've found.

This review is from: The School Counselor's Book of Lists (J-B Ed: Book of Lists) (Spiral-bound)
Wonderful resource not only for new counselors, but also for those "seasoned" in the field! A concise, but thorough resource covering nearly any information a counselor might need at a moment's notice. Strongly recommended!
