Description

Two studies of school counselors' perceptions of the impact of the North Carolina ABC (high-stakes) testing program are reported. (For ease of interpretation, percentages were rounded to the nearest whole number in both studies.) One hundred forty-one counselors who attended their state association's professional conference participated in study one, and a random sample of 139 school counselors, members of the state school counseling association, participated by mail in study two. Eighty percent or more of the counselors reported that they or another counselor served as the school's testing coordinator and that this function consumed a considerable percentage of their time. Although counselors noted some positive effects of the high-stakes testing program, they overwhelmingly reported that it negatively impacted their ability to provide services and their relationships with students, teachers, and administrators. **********
