Grapevine Colleyville Independent School District issued the following announcement.
Colleyville Heritage High School has earned the prestigious Lone Star State School Counselor Association’s (LSSSCA) Silver Award.
In 2016, LSSSCA developed a progressive awards system that includes three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards. Each level is met with increased levels of rigor designed to elevate school counselor programs to national recognition through The American School Counselor Association (ASCA) Recognized ASCA Model Program (RAMP) awards. Schools receiving the LSSSCA Bronze, Silver or Gold award demonstrated outstanding comprehensive counseling programs that were data-driven, focused on goal completion and aligned to the ASCA National Model.
The LSSSCA Award System evaluates school counseling programs in the following 10 areas:
Vision and Mission Statement
Annual Student Outcome Goals
Classroom and Group Mindsets & Behaviors Action Plan
Annual Administrative Conference
Advisory Council
Calendars
Lesson Plans
Classroom Instruction Results Report

Each application packet was judged according to a rubric that is aligned to the national ASCA RAMP award.
