National School Counseling Week
February 2 - 6, 2026
School Counselors Amplify Student Success
Why Celebrate National School Counseling Week?
National School Counseling Week is an opportunity to recognize and elevate the essential role school counselors play in California’s schools. Throughout the week, we celebrate how school counselors amplify student success by supporting academic achievement, social-emotional well-being, and college and career readiness for all students.
This isn't just a week to celebrate - it’s a time to educate communities, policymakers, and educational partners about the impact of comprehensive school counseling programs.
Celebrating National School Counseling Week helps to:
- Highlight the critical contributions of school counselors to student success
- Increase awareness of the school counselor’s role among students, families, and educators
- Advocate for equitable access to school counseling services across California
- Showcase data, outcomes, and best practices from school counseling programs
- Recognize and appreciate the dedication of school counselors statewide
