The board will provide a student guidance and counseling program. The guidance counselor will be certified with the Iowa Department of Education and hold the qualifications required by the board. The guidance and counseling program will serve grades kindergarten through twelve. The program will assist students with their personal, educational, and career development. The program is coordinated with the education program and will involve licensed employees.
NOTE: Although it is not mandated to have a guidance counselor, it is required that a counseling program exist. This is a mandated policy and reflects the educational standards. For more detailed discussion of this issue, see IASB's Policy Primer, Vol. 14 #3- June 27, 2001.
