Abstract
The last decade has seen a transformation in the role of the professional school counselor. National educational reform initiatives have influenced the nature of the theory and practice of school counseling (Trust, 2000). Like other educational professionals, school counselors are being called upon to contribute to a movement ensuring that all students achieve high academic standards, as measured by ever-increasing assessment initiatives. In an era of “No Child Left Behind” (U.S. Department of Education, 2001) and “Race to the Top” (U.S. Department of Education, 2009), educators are being held ever more accountable for student academic achievement. As the field of education grapples with this call for accountability, the nature of educator preparation is coming under greater scrutiny.
