Wade Hampton High School earns national school counseling recognition for second time

For the second time, Wade Hampton High School has received the prestigious RAMP designation for its school counseling program. RAMP, which stands for Recognized ASCA Model Program, is bestowed upon schools by the American School Counseling Association for “delivering a comprehensive, data-informed counseling program and an exemplary educational environment.”

“This year’s RAMP honorees have shown their commitment to students and the school counseling profession,” said Jill Cook, ASCA executive director. “These schools used data to drive their program development and implementation so all students can achieve success.”

Wade Hampton High School is one of 138 schools in 25 states to receive this national recognition, and one of four schools in South Carolina to earn the honor. Additionally, Wade Hampton is the only GCS high school to hold this distinction two times in a row.

Other past GCS winners include Paris Elementary School, Woodland Elementary School and Sevier Middle School.
