Abstract
School counseling is a relatively unfamiliar profession in Uganda and has only recently begun to catch the attention of school administrators. But even now in Uganda, it is often a position that is regarded as one that can be performed without professional training. This project aimed to pioneer the profession of professional school counseling in Uganda, employing more Ugandans, and helping students succeed in secondary school. We looked to evaluate the attitude towards counselors in the schools from students and administrators, as well as to support the profession of school counseling in Uganda.
