The American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommends that schools maintain a ratio of no more than 250 students per counselor, however the national average is 470 students per counselor. Along with many of these schools having poor student to counselor ratios, one in five students does not have access to a counselor at all. This has left around 8 million students without a proper support system.
