We're continuing to nerd out over data and want you to join us! There is a great formula in Excel and Google Sheets that can help make disaggregating data so much easier. Do you have multiple data reports, but you want to focus on how a specific group of students is reflected across those multiple reports on a single spreadsheet tab? This tip is for you!

Do you want to try it out yourself? Create your own copy of the exact spreadsheets used in the tutorial by clicking the link associated with your preferred program below and follow along with the video as practice.

Got questions about delivering a CSCP? Ask an admin!
We have invited a very special group of administrators to participate as panelists at our January webinar - they are all former school counselors! They'll answer YOUR questions, share how they've navigated CSCP pitfalls, and offer suggestions for partnering to deliver a CSCP. Submit a question for the panelists below.
 AWSP, Hatching Results, and OSPI partnered to create a six-part video series specifically for school leaders related to Comprehensive School Counseling Programs:
Same great content, two different formats!
Course window open from 10/30 - 12/8
There are multiple courses to choose from - take one or all! You can complete the courses by yourself, with a colleague or team, and on your own time at your own pace. These courses include built-in knowledge checks. Participants earn 15 clock hours per completed course! These asynchronous courses are GREAT for district counselor PLCs.

Help us build our bank of example CSCPs!
We rely on CSCP team members like YOU to have the courage to share your examples with us. Examples do not have to be perfect for them to be helpful. In fact, too “perfect” of an example can be extremely discouraging if your program doesn’t look like theirs! We also know that sharing a work-in-progress CSCP can feel vulnerable, so to help we are offering FREE artifact review by a member of the Hatching Results team. This is the perfect way to get some feedback (and realize how amazing you’re doing) before sharing the artifact as an example. The more people who take advantage of this LIMITED opportunity, the more examples we’ll have, and the better everyone’s CSCPs will be!
What changes to your professional practice, building and/or district staffing, or student outcomes are a result of creating and/or implementing a Comprehensive School Counseling Program? Submit a testimonial and help us advocate for continued supports!

On behalf of the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), the American Institutes for Research (AIR) and our education partners, we are asking for support in a collaborative information gathering process to inform the implementation of Washington State Restraint & Isolation policy, including the development of a technical assistance guide and accompanying training for school staff.
Your association’s membership plays a key role in this work, and we would appreciate your help to collect staff experiences and suggestions relative to use of restraint and isolation in schools by participating in a voluntary survey. Responses are confidential and the survey should take 5-10 minutes to complete.
We will not identify participants by name in any reports or findings, and all findings will be presented in the aggregate. Responses and the information learned from the survey will not be used to evaluate staff, districts, schools, or students. If you have any questions about this survey or the study overall, please contact Dr. Dia Jackson, Senior Researcher at AIR (djackson@air.org).
Organizational Wellness for Equity
What keeps staff members coming back year after year? What are the administrative moves that create a culture of wellness?
If you’re looking for some fresh ideas on how to think about organizational wellness not just at an individual level but as a holistic experience, you’ll want to attend this webinar. We’re bringing you <org>’s Rachel Madding to talk about what it takes to create a systems approach to wellness that’s grounded in educational equity. We’ll have a panel of practitioners to share examples of how this work has evolved in Central Kitsap School District and we’ll offer you intentional tools, resources, and structures to help you get started. Free Clock Hours are available.
