November 7, 2024 - Regular School Board Meeting | ||
Title C14 - Affiliation Agreement Renewal- Liberty University | ||
Description The School Board of Clay County has a current affiliation agreement with Liberty University for placement of school counselor interns within CCDS schools. This is a renewal of that existing agreement with a new automatic renewal unless one of the parties chooses to terminate the agreement. This includes both traditional interns and current employees who are placed as out of field school counselors. | ||
Gap Analysis Current and prospective school counselors rely on CCDS for placement at internship sites to ensure their completion of School Counseling Master’s degree programs and state certification requirements. This continued agreement is vital to our placement of qualified school counselors. The addition of multiple universities with affiliation agreements also increases the options for our out of field school counselors to have access to the coursework needed to become fully certified. | ||
Previous Outcomes Intern placements have successfully completed required field work to progress towards their degree programs and state certification requirements. | ||
Expected Outcomes Increase placement of qualified school counselors | ||
Strategic Plan Goal Goal 4: Safe and Positive Learning Environment. A district wide plan ensures that students at all schools have access to quality counseling services to support their mental health and wellness by increasing strategies that specifically address student resilience, positive behavior and life skills. | ||
Recommendation That the school board approves the affiliation agreement. | ||
