You’re tired of being told what “best practice” looks like by people who haven’t actually worked in a school in years.
Maybe you’ve downloaded a ton of "curriculums" and freebies but still don’t feel ready.
You need support that feels like it was actually made for you.
You’re staring down the school year and wondering where to even begin.
You want a calmer, more confident start—but don’t know where to find it.
You’re staring down a brand-new school year—trying to feel excited, but already feeling the weight of what’s ahead.
You’ve collected the resources, sat through the PD, and done your best to align to the model… even if you already know the “ideal” isn’t going to be possible this year.
But what you REALLY want is to feel grounded.
Clear.
Confident in what you’re doing- and why.
You want to lead your program in a way that works for your campus, not just on paper.
If that sounds familiar, Best Year Ever! was made for you.
This series is designed to help you start strong, lead smarter, and finally feel like your counseling program fits your actual reality, not just a checklist.
You bring the brilliance.
We’ll help you build a plan
July 22: A better way to begin.
We’ll show you how to start the year without getting swept up in the pressure, the chaos, or the noise.
July 23: What to keep, what to ditch.
You’ll rethink what “ready” really means and walk away with a simpler, smarter way to prep.
July 24: The trap nobody talks about.
We’ll name the expectation that’s quietly burning counselors out- and give you something better to aim for.
BONUS NIGHT- July 25: What to do instead.
You’ll get a flexible new approach that helps you lead with more clarity, more confidence, and a lot less guesswork.
Best Year Ever! is built for real counselors doing real work in real schools.
We don’t waste your time.
We don’t assume ASCA compliance.
And we definitely don’t expect you to sit through a Zoom full of someone else's ego.
At School for School Counselors, we believe you’re the expert on your campus.
We just give you the structure, support, and strategy to lead like it.
Yes! All sessions will be recorded and sent to everyone who registers.
So whether you miss a night- or just want to go back and soak up more of the awesomeness- you’ll have a few days to watch (or rewatch) on your own time.
Not at all. You’re welcome to come to any (or all) of the sessions: whatever works for your schedule and energy.
And if you can't make it live, replays will be available for a limited time, so you can catch up on your own time.
The event runs July 22–24 (plus an awesome bonus night July 25) at 8pm EST, live on Zoom.
Just sign up to get your free ticket, and we'll email you everything you need- including reminders and replay access- so all you have to do is show up.
If you’re tired of feel-good fluff, one-size-fits-all advice, or events that leave you more overwhelmed than when you started, this will feel like a breath of fresh air.
Come try a night and see what all the fuss is about!
ABSOLUTELY NOT! (We hate those kinds of "workshops," too.)
These sessions are packed with real strategy, support, and resources. We’ll briefly share how you can keep working with us if you want to- but there’s no pressure, EVER.
Nope! We’ve had first-year counselors, seasoned professionals, and everyone in between- and they ALL walk away with something practical and encouraging.
