This show is the brain child of the Colorado School Counselor Association.
From Plains to Peaks, provides a space for all things school counselor.
Our hope is to make connections with folks around our state and beyond.
Provide some education, provoke some thought, engage in meaningful conversations from our point of view, and to bring some levity to our ever challenging yet very rewarding work in the field of education.
There’s a lot that goes in to be a school counsellor in Colorado – we don’t leap into action when times get tough, we’re there for the good times too.
So join us as we experience together – From Plains to Peak - Counsellor’s Speak.
In the inaugural episode of the Colorado School Counselor Association's podcast, host Anna Gisseti interviews Matthew McClain, the Executive Director.

He discusses the current challenge of a shortage of school counselors, with many districts having open positions. McClain outlines the various committees within the association, including advocacy, professional development, and diversity, equity, and inclusion, and encourages involvement.
