Get ready ASCA 2024 conference in Kansas City, MO

Hey everyone, I am Kami Johnson. I am in my 3 year of my 1st term as a Board of Directors. I am really looking forward to this year as a board member. I have been in Atlanta for the ASCA conference and have learned so much from others in the profession.

Proud to be celebrating FOUR Missouri Schools on becoming Recognized ASCA Model Programs. @ASCAtweets #schoolcounselor #RAMP #ASCA23

Hey all! Cassie Hood @CounselorHood here ready to bring you all the happenings at #ASCA24. Looking forward to a great day of learning, leading and connection.

“You ARE superheoroes. You give our students a sense of belonging and respect” - @SecCardona #ASCA23

Did you know your high school student(s) could qualify for a Study Abroad Language Scholarship, through NSLI For Youth? #ASCA23

Bearapy is a thing! Is Social/Emotional curriculum your jam!? Check out these great resources!!!! #ASCA23

Evidence Based Practices align well with the ASCA Model (Manage, Access, Deliver, and Define). As a school counselor, stop and think about how often you communicate/collaborate with your SPED teachers and why? SC and SPED Tchrs are always looking at the WHOLE child! #ASCA23

As a School Counselor we must always be willing to advocate for the position! Shout out to @ASCAtweets for doing just that with these buses to/from the hotels. Non-SCs have definitely been talking and inquiring! #ASCA23

It’s the connection! One vision, one voice! Here’s the BOD minus one, taking a break to network, explore, and process through all the information we’ve gained throughout the last couple of days. #LDI23 #ASCA23
