Which item is listed under ASCA Assess?

• A. Program Assessment
• B. Use of Time
• C. Advisory
• D. Lesson Plans

Answer: (A)

ASCA Assess focuses on evaluating how well the school counseling program is working and what outcomes it achieves. Program Assessment is the item that directly represents this evaluation of the entire counseling program—checking goals, processes, and results to show impact on students. The other options plug into different aspects of the program: Use of Time is about how the counselor’s hours are spent and tracked (a management concern), Advisory concerns stakeholder input and governance, and Lesson Plans relate to delivering the guidance curriculum. While all are important, only Program Assessment centers on assessing the program’s effectiveness and outcomes, making it the best fit.
