118: How to Use Data to Advocate for Your Role

School Counseling Simplified Podcast

One of the most effective ways for you to advocate for your role as a school counselor is to use data to showcase your impact. Many counselors get overwhelmed or nervous about data collection. I am here to tell you that it doesn’t need to be overwhelming! It is so powerful to have data to show your parents, teachers, and admin, and today, I am sharing my favorite end of the year data report to help you advocate for your role.

You may be wondering why I am talking about end of the year data reports in November but the tool I am talking about can be used throughout the year to showcase your work. I am so excited to help you create an amazing report that will WOW your admin, teachers, and parents.

In this episode, I am sharing why you should be using data collection and data reports, what my data report looks like section by section, tips for when you create your report, how this report helps you advocate for your position, and how you can use it throughout the year. If you’re looking for more information on what data to collect and how to collect it, grab the FREEBIE that’s filled with helpful data collection information!
