Description

Student self-efficacy plays a crucial role in middle schoolers motivation, and school success. The aim of this study was to explore how historical Panorama self-efficacy survey scores from the end of the 2025 school year can inform the development of a school counseling workshop series designed to strengthen self-efficacy across grades 6-8. Using a data informed approach, student scores from MCAS were looked at to see if they aligned with the low self-efficacy scores on the survey. The study demonstrates how counselors in a school can use Tier 1 interventions to inform development of a workshop to target all students in the school. The goal of the interventions is to improve student self-efficacy scores while increasing student academic scores in the middle school.
