Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is Option A: community involvement

Explanation:

Professional school counselors should play role of a central player and help reconstruct school systems through their leadership and advocacy. Their main goal is to help increase the students performance academically.

Due to the change in demographics currently in U.S, they are being challenged to  meet the needs of many groups of minority students, either from  U.S. or even foreign born. So, as leaders and advocates, they should need to reconsider their roles and think more systematically. They need to come out of their current role and change the system effectively.

So, to transform the role of 'professional school counselor', it is important to change focus on promoting community involvement.
