Perceptions of Preparedness for a Major School Crisis: An Evaluation of Missouri School Counselors
Werner, Danilea
Journal of School Counseling, v12 n3 2014
A major school crisis can cause physical and emotional distress as well as impact student academic performance. The purpose of this study was to use a web-based survey to explore Missouri school counselors' perceptions of individual and school-wide crisis preparedness and crisis training experiences. Results indicate that the more involved school counselors are in the crisis planning process the more prepared they feel. By understanding the differences in school counselor crisis preparedness perception and their involvement in crisis planning, educational institutions can design and target training to increase effectiveness and improve disaster response.
