What is a component of the Delivery System in the ASCA National Model?

The guidance curriculum is a fundamental component of the Delivery System in the ASCA National Model. This component encompasses structured lessons and activities designed to teach students essential skills related to academic, career, and social/emotional development. It lays the groundwork for providing consistent and comprehensive support to all students. The guidance curriculum is delivered in various formats, such as classroom lessons and small group sessions, making it an integral approach to fostering student learning and well-being.

In contrast, while behavioral assessments, fundraising activities, and teacher professional development can support a school counseling program, they do not specifically fit within the Delivery System framework as described by the ASCA National Model. Behavioral assessments are tools for evaluation rather than direct delivery of services, fundraising activities usually pertain to budget and resource allocation, and teacher professional development focuses on enhancing educator skills rather than directly addressing student needs through a formal curriculum.
