According to the
ASCA Ethical Standards for School Counselors, School Counselors should:
"c. Recognize the complicated nature of confidentiality in schools
and consider each case in context. Keep information confidential unless legal requirements demand that confidential information be
revealed or a breach is required to prevent serious and foreseeable harm to the student. Serious and foreseeable harm is different for each minor in schools and is defined by students’ developmental
and chronological age, the setting, parental rights and the nature of the harm. School counselors consult with appropriate professionals
when in doubt as to the validity of an exception."
(www.schoolcounselor.og)
According to The American School Counselor Association (ASCA), a school counselor should assist students in three areas:
(1) Academic
(2) Personal/Social
(3) Career Development
ASCA also states that this should be done so that students can, "...achieve success in school and are prepared to lead fulfilling lives as responsible members of society."
