"Whether you are a new or experienced school counselor, Dr. Trish Hatch and her team will provide you with essential and practical strategies that can instantly be implemented into your counseling program so you can better serve your students. Hatching Results for Secondary School Counseling is a MUST read for any school counselor who is ready to start developing a solid foundation of a comprehensive counseling program that ensures the needs of ALL students are being met. "

"The authors have created a ‘go-to’ MTSS guide for pre-service and practicing secondary school counselors. Their evidence-based, hands-on approach makes this book both practical and relevant for school counselors facing multiple demands and ever-changing student populations. In my opinion, this text should be on the desk of every school counselor who is serious about maximizing his or her time, implementing schoolwide culturally responsive interventions, and helping ALL students reach their fullest potential."

"The ideas, tools, and techniques shared in this book are highly needed in the world of secondary school counseling. Changing the school counselor's role from that of emergency triage to general practitioner and focusing the majority of our time on helping keep students 'well' through a preventative approach is so crucial. Having this comprehensive walk-through guide to help the increasing instances of school counselors entering the field without formal teaching experience is a godsend. Many of us are nervous about getting into the classroom regularly, and this will make that privilege easier and more effective. This book will be well-used and referenced and will share a coveted place on my desk next to The Use of Data in School Counseling as my go-to guide for our day-to-day work."

"From start to finish, Hatching Results in Secondary School Counseling is a school counselor's survival guide. Written in a pragmatic way and with a 'no excuses' approach to serving ALL students, it is filled with helpful and practical tips, suggestions, stories, and tools throughout. This book is what all school counselors, both new and veteran, and school counseling students have been waiting for!"
