OUR VISION OUR MISSION
What we hope to see in the future:

School counselors are leaders, systemic change agents, collaborators, and advocates who are empowered to design, implement, evaluate, and improve comprehensive, data-driven school counseling programs that address the diverse needs of all students, increase access and opportunities, and decrease equity gaps, resulting in schools that produce successful, contributing, and resilient members of society.
How we will achieve our vision:

Hatching Results serves and advances the school counseling profession by producing sustainable systemic change through a Multi-Tiered, Multi-Domain System of Supports (MTMDSS) that ensures equitable access to high quality education for all students. Co-constructed, tailored professional learning and consultation services equip school counselors and educational stakeholders with the skills to design, implement, evaluate, and improve comprehensive, data-driven school counseling programs that reflect the transformed role of the 21st century school counselor.
OUR THEORY OF CHANGE
If Hatching Results... Then school counselors will... So that students will...
  1. Provides a variety of cutting edge supports to school counselors, administrators, district leaders, and other key educational partners;

  2. Equips and empowers school counselors with the necessary attitudes, knowledge, and skills;

  3. Builds sustainable, internal leadership capacity within districts, counties, and states to align their policies, practices, and systems with current professional, evidence-based frameworks;

  4. Serves and advances the profession by promoting current research, modeling promising practices, and curating a variety of innovative resources;

  1. Design, implement, evaluate, and transform comprehensive school counseling programs aligned to evidence-based models and frameworks that promote student equity, access, opportunity, and success (e.g. ASCA National Model, MTSS/MTMDSS, CASEL, NOSCA 8, EBP, Social Justice Standards, Data-Driven Decision-Making Cycle)

  2. Serve as dynamic leaders, advocates, collaborators, and agents of systemic change who actively contribute to the development of a highly effective and inclusive school climate that continually improves its systems for learning to maximize student success.

  6. Build synergistic partnerships with other student service providers, staff, and community agencies to ensure all students receive the appropriate supports according to their demonstrated level of need, within a multi-tiered, multi-domain system of supports (MTMDSS):
    • All students receive high quality universal Tier 1 support, including school counseling classroom instruction, individual student planning (grades 6-12), and schoolwide programs and activities.
    • Some students (~20%), who are identified through a proactive analysis of data, receive supplemental Tier 2 support.
    • Few students (~5%) receive short-term, intensified Tier 3 support.

  8. Regularly share the impact of their programs and activities on student outcomes with the school community.

  9. Approach professional learning from a beginner’s mindset while actively engaging in reflective, transformational growth aligned to current professional and ethical standards of practice.

  • Achieve their fullest potential as active participants in a diverse global community.
So that the school counseling profession will...

WHY we do it.png

Over the course of a couple years, Hatching Results empowered our Comprehensive Counseling Team (CCT) to move from random acts of guidance to an intentional data-driven alignment of our initiative to support our diverse students and families at all levels of the MTMDSS. Applying their knowledge and experience as school counselors and district administrators, Hatching Results recognized the uniqueness of our approach in forming a comprehensive counseling team comprised of school counselors, school social workers, school psychologists, and social-emotional learning specialists. While collaborating with multiple Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation (EVSC) district departments and external data analysts, Hatching Results provided many resources and adapted their professional development to meet our needs to align with the EVSC mission, vision, and continuous improvement plan. In presentations to the Board of School Trustees, administration, and district support staff, Hatching Results advocated for systemic change.

CCT pre/post data gathered from the professional development provided by Hatching Results confirms an understanding and alignment of roles and responsibilities with improved knowledge, beliefs, and skills. Hatching Results has allowed us to see possibilities that we once thought impossible—systemic change is becoming a reality in EVSC!

Trish and her team have helped affirm for me and provide me the language to support school counselors in their critical work. Hatchings training emphasizes empowerment and accountability for counselors so they can also advocate for themselves. Through our county-wide collaborative efforts we have seen counselors become more integrated into the work of their schools and become a true network of professionals.

Hatching Results® now offers a variety of educational services delivered by expert consultants, grant writers, evaluators, and professional learning specialists. Our goal is to help school counselors, site administrators and central office leaders answer the following questions about their school counseling programs:

  • What is the purpose of my program?

  • What are my goals and objectives?

  • How will I collect and use data?

  • Which school counseling data matters most?

  • How do I assess the impact of my activities?

  • How do I evaluate the results of the school counseling program?

  • Is the program making a difference?

  • How do we revise or improve our program?

  • How do I help school counselors become more efficient and effective?

  • How do we add collecting and evaluating data to the school counselor's full plate?

As an integral part of the total educational program for student success, school counselors are increasingly called on to demonstrate how their program connects to common core standards and uses data to:

  • Identify targeted areas of need

  • Implement intentional guidance (or closing the gap) activities to address areas of need

  • Measure the results of their programs

  • Provide equity and access to a rigorous education for every student
