The first part of the article provides an overview of comprehensive guidance and counseling programs in the United States. Next, individual student planning, a major guidance and counseling program component, is described, followed by a discussion of why individual student planning is important in the lives of students. Then examples of individual student planning practices are provided. The article closes with a presentation of evidence of the impact of these practices on critical markers of student success, including academic achievement. Guidance and counseling has been part of the United States’ educational system — kindergarten through grade 12 — since the early 1900s. During the early years, teachers were appointed to the position of vocational counselor. They were given a list of duties to perform, in addition to their regular full-time teaching duties. No formal organizational structure was provided other than the list of duties (Gysbers & Henderson, 2006).
