Welcome to the Department of School Counseling January 2025 Learning Engagement Institute!
We have an exciting day planned for with an inspirational speaker, tier 1 focused learning and express sessions where you get to choose! We will wrap up the day with some horizontal team time to discuss topics important to your school counseling programming.
In this Sched listing, you will find the options available for the express session section of the day. You will get to choose two express sessions that will be 30 minutes each with time between to change rooms. It is a lot of learning in a short amount of time but we tried to give you plenty of variety!
“Check & Connect” is a research-based, individualized intervention that supports students who are showing signs of dropping out of school. Mentors are trained to target Attendance, Behavior, and Coursework (The ABCs) with students and help them problem-solve using their ABC data. The training provides skills and tools to help mentors intervene and disrupt the cycle of disengagement. Come learn more about this intervention and how to identify staff who would be effective in this mentor role.
