The final SPARC-MN was last presented Spring 2020.
The SPARC-MN is a continuous improvement document that gives a school counseling program and student support team an opportunity to demonstrate effective communication and a commitment to getting results. A Minnesota School Counselor Association (MSCA) committee of Minnesota school counselors has developed the
Support Personnel Accountability Report Card for Minnesota (SPARC-MN).
We hope that you will find the SPARC-MN useful in:
- Presenting a self-evaluation of your student support system
- Preparing/analyzing results that guide programming for all students in their academic, personal/social, and career goals
- Promoting your program to your school administration, school board, community partners and businesses and parents/guardians,
- Preparing reports for school accreditation, grants, or awards recognition, and
- Implementing the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) National Standards and National Model for School Counseling Programs
