Describe your experience with building relationships with your school administrator.
My experience with building relationships with my school administrator has been very positive, despite that we have had many admin throughout the past years. Every administrator is very different, as their goals are the same just the process of getting to the goal can be very different. I make sure that at some point I make sure that I am meeting with the admin and we are on the same page, what is expected from me so I can make sure that I am meeting the expectations. Offer my support in anything that I can, there is sometime support that be done outside our job duties. Check ins can also be very beneficial as there might be items that just pop up randomly and might not need a formal meeting. Working as a team is very crucial and can be very beneficial, in order to have a positive relationship we have to have good communication, helping each other out, checking in, and working as a team. These strategies help have a strong positive relationship with the admin team.

Describe your experience with building relationships with your school administrator
After eight and a half years, I left a school that I had been at since 2015. I had the experience of working with  5 different administrators at that school, which is on the West side of Los Angeles. I am now at a school in the South district. I have been at this school for 3 weeks. The School Administrators are very different. It has not been a smooth transition, as these administrators are ‘walled up”. As the new Counseling Assistant at this school, I have found that only one of the Administrators has taken the time to welcome me. I realize that being in a new place will offer challenges that I have not had to face. I expected that within the first week, I would have been able to connect with the Principal. I am in such an uncomfortable space. The school that I work at has students with severe challenges and I want to work I desire to connect to the administrators, as I need their input and ideas as to how to serve these students that they already know so well. I know that I need to be able to collaborate with administrators so that I can provide the best services for the students. I have been a bit discouraged because I am eager to get to know the administrators. It has been challenging, to say the least. I am determined to get to know all of the administrators, and I will just be patient and wait for opportunities to connect with them.

Restorative practices are approaches  geared towards repairing and building relationships (Sutton, 2024). They can help address an issues in the school environment. We can use data to determine where resorted practices can be used. At my site, the counselors looked through the data at the high school and found that 10th grade. Hispanic boys were the most at risk For multiple endanger of failing. Their goal for this year is to bridge that gap. In order to do so they Using a solution, focus restorative behavior plan, which includes three meetings with the student and one meeting at the end with both student and parents.
Some of the risk include not applying the restorative behavior to all groups, Only focusing on one, discrepancy between groups, for example, Suspension rates higher in minorities (Sutton, 2024). I do the restorative behavior interventions when a High school student is suspended. The main goal is for me to acclimate them back into their school environment. To do this, we talk about what they have learned, Coping skills, Resources on campus, Circle of control, And a safety plan. I met with them three times and follow up as needed. Each student, despite what the suspension was for gets the same three lessons. 
Restorative practices Can be beneficial in all tiers. For example, The student who are suspended For substances, such as Under the influence, Selling, Or in possession, will still do the three restorative practices. On top of that, they will be put on a contract where they will have to engage in a small group similar to NA or AA. If the student feels uncomfortable Participating in group, they have the option of doing one on one sessions with the counselor. They will have to participate in group or individual counseling for as many weeks Outlined in their contract.

Restorative practices are an effective way to help students resolve conflict, build and repair relationships, foster equity, and improve safety on school campuses.  Some restorative practices include community circles, restorative conversations, and restorative conferences (Barnett, 2021). With restorative practices, the wrongdoer is encouraged “to reflect on his or her behavior and to take accountability for his or her actions” (Barnett, 2021).  Additionally, students who participate in restorative practices learn more about each other through sharing perspectives, feelings, and experiences which can strengthen the community, culture and climate of a school.
Some of the risks of addressing repetitive behaviors with a restorative practice such as ‘circles’ is that the wrongdoer and the affected students may not take the practice seriously if the wrongdoer continuously repeats the unacceptable behavior.  Students may not want to share about themselves or how they feel if the wrongdoer or other students are repeating harmful or hurtful behaviors.  It’s imperative that the facilitator of the restorative practice sets firm boundaries and rules so that all students feel safe in sharing and participating. Moreover, Sutton (2021) states that “school leaders should continue to review student behavior and discipline data to help evaluate the effectiveness of restorative practices for the entire school, specific grade levels, and individual students.”
Restorative practices are not enough to deal with some of the social, emotional, and behavioral issues that students are currently dealing with because some students may need more intense interventions and support.  For example, students with severe learning disabilities such as emotional disturbance, autism, or speech/language impairment may need individualized counseling services and other community resources to help them with their current social, emotional and behavioral issues.

What made you want to become a school counselor?
I have always held jobs where I support and help people. Originally, I wanted be a nurse and after 2 years of that I decided it was not for me. I was thankful that I was able to earn my first nursing certification in High school through what was call ROP now CTE pathways, so I didn’t spend money on that, I got my bachelor’s in health and human services and was going to continue with my MFT. I took a few classes but had to drop once I was pregnant, and I was high risk. I always said I would go back once my baby was in school. 11 years later and I went back but all my credits were no longer valid, so I had to start over. Since I have been in school settings for the past 11 years and love working with the school counselors, I have great mentors I decided that I would get my Masters in school counseling. I have learned so much about what type of school counselor I want to be during this process and hope to continue to support students and families in my school counselor role.

How will the school counseling program facilitate a more peaceful/safe school environment? 
School counselors deliver targeted tier 1 interventions that are designed to reflect the needs of their student population. If I were working at a school site like the one I am currently experiencing my internship hours at, I would implement more whole class SEL lessons on empathy, kindness, belonging, and advocacy. It’s super important that everyone in the school community is onboard with the approach and language used for building a positive school climate. At my previous school site, I implemented a behavioural management program called Kelso’s Choices. The program gives students the vocabulary, approach, and process for solving problems. At the same time, it requires that students learn to identify small problems from big ones, and it teaches kids to advocate for adult support when a problem involves safety, a school rule has been violated or a person is in danger. When students learn a process to de-escalate conflict and problem solve on their own, this helps to build resiliency, independence, and confidence. If students also have adults who use the same language and problem solving skills at school and home, this helps to create a reliable and trusted safety network. Of course, this requires parent and teacher workshops to get everyone on board. At my previous school, it took about 3 years for kids and teachers to really buy-in and start using the same language, process and vocabulary to problem solve. It’s not as easy getting parents to change their way of solving conflicts at home, but many of our students said that they were implementing the skills on their own at home.

The Language We Learn Can Influence Our Brain Development
Studies suggest that differences in brain development may play an important role in intercultural communication. It has long been known that many non-western cultures do not stress logical reasoning. Children growing up in western cultures are taught to think and reason along the principles of induction and deduction, to break things down into their parts, to focus on details and important aspects of a matter, and also to understand underlying cause and effect relationships.
Non-western cultures tend to take in the overall picture and do not attempt to analyze. People learn to give proper consideration to all variables considered together. This means that they do not overlook background or secondary elements, which westerners could and would immediately rule out in their hurry “to get down to basics,” or “to find the facts that count.” This holistic perception of the world also takes into account feelings and associated emotions. An Asian or Native American could look at a landscape scorched by the hot sun and feel the suffering of the plants and animals. Other cultures making use of a holistic approach to viewing the world or to solving problems include Hispanics and African-Americans.
Whether one is linear or holistic in thinking depends partly on (brain) hemisphericity. Deduction, induction, mathematical reasoning, analysis — in general, what we call a linear and direct approach — are processes lateralized to the left hemisphere; holistic thinking, blending in with nature, feeling an overall effect, letting sights, sounds and smells build an overall picture involve processes lateralized to the right hemisphere.
Relate this to what the text says about Organizational Patterns.

You just viewed a scene from the film “Presumed Innocent” starring Harrison Ford. Ford’s character is a prosecutor and he is accused of committing murder.
Suddenly the colleagues he has been friends with for years are trying to send him to prison. In this particular scene, a pre-trial motion is being heard before the judge. What is being decided is whether something Ford said, out of anger, to one of his colleagues is admissible in court. 
Relate what the text says about dialects to the statement “Yeah, your right” as it is being dismissed by the judge.
