The power is intended to operate within a joint local approach to tackling truancy. 1.2 The guidance has been drawn up jointly by the Home Office and DfEE in consultation with the Social Exclusion Unit; the Welsh Office; the Association of Chief Police Officers; The Police Superintendents’ Association; The Police Federation; the Association of Police Authorities; the Local Government Association; local education authorities; and other education interests. 1.3 The guidance is non-statutory.

Comprehensive School Guidance Program Introduction
Program Delivery

Program Components
Introduction At Topsail Elementary guidance programming is preventative and developmental in nature, focussing primarily on the healthy growth of all children in the school community. Growth is a holistic term, allowing guidance to address the following developmental domains:
  • Self : Self-acceptance, self-understanding, self-discipline, self-appraisal, and self-direction. Confident, assertive, independent children learn to assume personal responsibility for learning. They respect themselves and their accomplishments;
  • Social : Children must learn that they are partly responsible for the collective good, that their behavior impacts on the wellbeing of others. Cooperation, respect, social problem solving, and conflict resolution are key elements in guidance programming.
  • Cognitive : Problem solving, decision making, acquiring / using knowledge, and learning-to-learn are central to a successful school experience.
  • Career : Knowledge of the world of work begins in the primary-elementary environment. Children must learn the value of education in preparing for adult life, and to appreciate terms such as technological change and life-long learning.

School Guidance and Counseling Varying techniques and strategies will need to be employed by the school counselor, including individual and group counseling, assessment, vocational and career guidance, multicultural counseling, consultation, and program development. Based in psychological and developmental theory, counselor training, therefore, will need to encompass a broad base of techniques, strategies, and interventions. The master’s programs are offered on the main campus in Fort Lauderdale and in the field-based format at various locations in Florida. Refer to the academic calendar for additional information. Certification Option The teachers/educators who have a master’s degree in an education area other than school guidance and counseling, and who hold a current Florida teaching certificate, may qualify for admission as a "special (non-degree) student" for the purpose of taking the designated Florida Department of Education requirements (30 credits) for certification (Rule 64-4.0181, Florida Statutes ). Students are responsible for verifying their eligibility through the Florida Department of Education.

Overview of the Truancy Problem Every day, hundreds of thousands of youth are absent from school; many are absent without an excuse and deemed truant. Although national data on truancy rates are not available (in part because no uniform definition of truancy exists), many large cities report staggering rates of truancy and chronic absenteeism. In general, the proportion of truancy cases handled in juvenile court is relatively small. However, the juvenile justice system is increasingly serving as the final stop for truants and as a mechanism for intervening with chronic truants. Recent statistics available on the extent of truancy cases in juvenile court clearly demonstrate how important it is for schools and communities to confront this issue. In 1998, truancy accounted for 26 percent of all formally handled status offense cases, representing an 85-percent increase in truancy cases in juvenile court since 1989 (from 22,200 cases in 1989 to 41,000 cases in 1998) (Puzzanchera et al., forthcoming). A closer look reveals that the number of petitioned truancy cases around the country is about evenly divided between boys and girls and that whereas the majority of petitioned truancy cases involve 15-year-olds, there have been petitioned cases involving boys and girls as young as 10 (Puzzanchera et al., forthcoming).

Schoolwide and Classroom Discipline
Kathleen Cotton INTRODUCTION During most of its twenty-two year existence, the Annual Gallup Poll of the Public's Attitudes Toward the Public Schools has identified "lack of discipline" as the most serious problem facing the nation's educational system. Many educators and students are also gravely concerned about disorder and danger in school environments, and with good reason: Each month approximately three percent of teachers and students in urban schools, and one to two percent in rural schools, are robbed or physically attacked. Nearly 17,000 students per month experience physical injuries serious enough to require medical attention (Harvard Education Letter 1987). School personnel, students, and parents call attention to the high incidence of related problems in school environmentsproblems such as drug use, cheating, insubordination, truancy, and intimidationwhich result in countless school and classroom disruptions and lead to nearly two million suspensions per year (Harvard Education Letter 1987). In addition to these school discipline issues, American classrooms are frequently plagued by other, more minor kinds of misbehavior which disrupt the flow of classroom activities and interfere with learning. Approximately one-half of all classroom time is taken up with activities other than instruction, and discipline problems are responsible for a significant portion of this lost instructional time (Cotton 1990).

This component addresses self-esteem, motivation for success, decision making and problem solving, interpersonal and communication skills, cross cultural awareness, responsible behavior, health issues, and violence prevention, among others, using the Advisor Advisee (AA) format. The MS counselor researches topics that the community (parents, students, teachers, and administrators) consider significant for this population. The counselor also researches and requests resources available to deliver these topics, and develops the guidance curriculum and calendar in close consultation with teachers and administrators. The MS team periodically assesses materials and methodology used in order to make appropriate modifications for the following guidance lessons.
