School counselors provide a critical service helping students to learn more about themselves and forming close partnerships with families to help each student reach his or her full potential. National School Counseling Week, sponsored by the American School Counselor Association, focuses public attention on the important contribution these professionals make 365 days each year. Naviance is proud to join the celebration this week by recognizing the efforts of those professionals and the role they play in helping students achieve success in school, college, career, and life.
