The roles and responsibilities of school counselors have rapidly evolved, especially over the last three decades. During this time, the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) has published many documents, including a program framework, standards, position statements, tools, and training materials to help school counselors fulfill their responsibilities. In particular, the "ASCA National Model: A Framework for School Counseling Programs" was developed to guide school counselors in defining, managing, delivering, and assessing a comprehensive school counseling program (CSCP) that aligns with educational goals and addresses the needs of students. Educational leaders who understand the nature of a CSCP stand to hire, support, and assess school counselors more effectively in their work. Recent studies on what educational leaders know about CSCPs rely on self-report perceptions. The current study uses the ELKSCI (Educational Leaders Knowledge of School Counseling Inventory), a validated tool, to objectively measure educational leaders' knowledge about CSCPs.
