Key Points

  • Congress supports naming Feb 3–7, 2025 as “National School Counseling Week” to highlight school counselors’ work.
  • It honors school counselors for helping students with academics, mental health, bullying, and planning for college and careers.
  • It points out many schools have too few counselors, and counselor jobs can be cut when local budgets get tight.
  • It encourages schools and communities to hold activities that recognize counselors and raise awareness of their role.
  • This is mainly a recognition measure and does not create new federal funding or require schools to change staffing.
