The Role of School Counselors Remotely

When the COVID-19 pandemic closed most U.S. schools for in-person learning, students needed their counsellors more than ever. Yet at the same time, virtual or hybrid learning conditions created roadblocks to reaching those students.

An August 2020 report authored by researchers from Harvard Graduate School of Education and Boston College's Lynch School of Education and Human Development made clear the challenges school counsellors face. A survey of nearly 1,000 school counsellors found that during the pandemic, they had less time than usual to work directly with students on social-emotional issues, career counselling and other topics.

As the U.S. prepares for post-COVID education in virtual and in-person settings, counsellors must navigate the fallout students are continuing to experience from drastic disruptions as of late. Just because students are back in school doesn't mean they're not still grappling with the serious effects of the pandemic that impact their academic and emotional well-being.

Are Schools 'Post-COVID'?

Reopening guidance from the American Association of School Administrators (AASA) encourages schools to prioritize support for students and adults to address short- and long-term emotional, psychological and physical health needs. Education experts agree they will have to consider residual and ongoing trauma resulting from the pandemic.

As researchers wrote in the December 2020 issue of the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NAASP) bulletin, COVID-related trauma can have potentially severe consequences for students' mental health: "Due to social isolation and adverse childhood experiences, there are concerns of suicidality, technology addiction, and school safety as schools attempt to transition to a state of normalcy in the months to come."

While the world may begin to use the term "post-COVID," the pandemic's effects are still very real for many students, especially the most vulnerable. As a result, counsellors must be attuned to their students' continuing needs and how the pandemic exacerbates their challenges.
