In this first episode of the Graded series, we put the ASCA National Model to the test.What was promised? What’s actually happening? And what grade does it really deserve?If you’ve ever felt like the model was built for someone else’s school, you are NOT alone!For over two decades, the ASCA Model has served as the gold standard in school counseling. But for most counselors, the support to make it work just isn’t there.Not in staffing.Not in scheduling.Not in the endless stream of “other duties as assigned.”You don’t need another pep talk.You need someone to tell the truth about why the model still isn’t protecting your time- and help you reclaim your confidence in the process.*********************************Episode References:Mullen, P.
