This report is being presented in compliance with Administrative Policy 7.32, Comprehensive School Counseling Program, which requires a report on comprehensive school counseling program activities to improve postsecondary outcomes must be provided to the Board of Directors every October.
During the 2017-2018 school year, the comprehensive school counseling program implemented and collaborated on a number of activities and strategies to increase postsecondary outcomes for students in Milwaukee Public Schools. Additionally, 2017-2018 was the first year of the statewide requirement for all students in public schools to engage in Academic and Career Planning (ACP). Milwaukee Public Schools was one of the ACP pilot districts for the Department of Public Instruction and already was engaging students in the ACP process. The comprehensive school counseling program is closely aligned with the ACP process. The activities implemented in 2017-2018 for improving postsecondary outcomes included the following:
1. School Counseling Curriculum – grades K5-12
