  3. Reasons for SSPs • Promote regular communication between school and parent/guardian, and among school personnel • Develop 21st Century Skills • Connect school program to “real life” • Identification of students who need proactive support and intervention • Involve student in a meaningful way in goal setting, reflection, and thoughtful planning

  4. Capstone • Student program results in some sort of demonstration of student accomplishments • Could be compilation of student best work examples (portfolio) • Could be some project, demonstration, performance, or experience • Demonstrates “most important components of K-12 learning” • Increases engagement • Assures students meet SSP goals • Aligns with NEASC standards for core values and 21st century learning expectations

  5. SSP Core Components • Academic Development • Career Development • Social, Emotional, and Physical Development • Aligned with Connecticut Secondary School Reform Plan, CT Comprehensive School Counseling Program Guide/Frameworks, and Perkins Career planning

  6. Academic • Map of planned academic choices over time • Selection of rigorous courses linked to interest, skills and career pathways • Selection of courses for the attainment of education and/or career goals • Progress toward successful completion of Portfolio/Capstone Project • Ongoing support and assessment of progress with mentor/advisor • Provision of timely intervention

  7. Career • Interest and ability inventories • Career exploration activities and elective courses • Postsecondary education and career pathway development • Provides some real experience such as a job shadow, internship, or work-experience

  8. Social, Emotional, Physical • Effective decision-making skills • Empathic interactions and community service • Utilizing supportive resources • Healthy and safe life skills/choices • Broadened awareness of self within a global context

  9. Expanded role for adults • Adults are expected to mentor and support students in a more formal way • Adults need to be more cognizant of what students are interested in doing and how to get to the target • Adults need to be aware of requirements and options for students • Adults need to “keep doors open” for students by exploring possibilities and opportunities

  10. Some other thoughts • Expanded 6-12 focus because students start on some course trajectories early in their academic careers • Exploring interests and skills and matching them to relevant and rigorous coursework will make school more relevant and engaging • SSPs depend on developing relationships between students and adults • SSPs are enhanced by experiences beyond the school walls
