Crown Point High School Receives 2015 RAMP Designation

Crown Point High School will receive the Recognized ASCA Model Program (RAMP) designation during a special ceremony at the American School Counselor Association’s annual conference in Phoenix, Ariz. for making an exemplary commitment to comprehensive school counseling programs.

The RAMP designation, awarded for aligning with the criteria in the ASCA National Model, recognizes schools that are committed to delivering a comprehensive, data driven school counseling program and an exemplary educational environment. Since the program’s inception, nearly 600 schools have been designated as RAMP recipients.

“This year’s RAMP honorees have shown their commitment to students and the school counseling profession,” said Jill Cook, ASCA assistant director. “This designation distinguishes these schools and encourages school counselors nationwide to strive for excellence.”
