Effects of Students\u27 Middle-School and High-School Experiences on Completion of the Bachelor\u27s Degree
Jerry Trusty authored the first Center Research Monograph Effects of Studentsâ Middle-School and High-School Experiences on Completion of the Bachelorâs Degree. This monograph reports critically important research on the impact of studentsâ middle and high school experiences on later success in earning a Bachelorâs degree. In addition, the monograph presents a model that summarizes relationships between student experiences and later college success and identifies ways school counselors can intervene to foster success. This important work establishes significant relationships between proximal factors such as science and math course taking and long term success in higher education. It identifies specific points of intervention for school counselors that can be expected to have long term effects on student success

Closing achievement gaps: Roles and tasks of elementary school counselors
Achievement gaps among racialâethnic and socioeconomic status groups are an enduring, pervasive, and multifaceted phenomenon. Therefore, efforts aimed at understanding and addressing these gaps must be developmentally and environmentally broad, involving numerous school counselor roles and tasks, including leadership, advocacy, collaboration, and strategic interventions. In this article, we first document achievement gap trends and then provide a framework for understanding and sequencing outcomes that quantify student achievement gaps. Finally, we present research that identifies critical variables influencing achievement gaps and important school counselor roles and tasks aimed at closing these gaps. The article focuses on outcomes across the developmental spectrum from elementary school through postsecondary education
