Reporting student growth is critical in a comprehensive developmental school-counseling program. It is the key to proving whether the school-counseling program is working. Resulting results will tell stakeholders how students have changed because of the program. It is vitally important to report data on how the school-counseling program improves student achievement and contributes to school improvement/closing-the-gap goals.
