Praxis 5422 Practice Question

A school counselor wants to advocate for the removal of test coordination from the list of school counselor responsibilities. Which of the following activities provides the greatest opportunity for the counselor to engage in advocacy?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Engaging in advocacy effectively requires a platform that allows for direct communication and influence over decision-makers. Conducting an annual administrative conference provides the counselor with a formal setting to present arguments, share data, and discuss the implications of test coordination on student support services, thereby directly influencing policy.

In contrast, consulting with colleagues (A) may foster collaboration but lacks the authority to enact change. Participating in cross-curricular development (B) could enhance teaching strategies but does not specifically address the counselor's advocacy goals. Seeking out professional development (C) enhances skills but does not directly impact the school’s administrative decisions.
