School counselors are experts in leading kindness lessons and school-wide campaigns to help our students to be friendly, generous, and considerate. But in order to address inequities, bias, prejudice and more in our school communities, school counselors must move beyond kindness. School counselors must incorporate social justice standards and culturally sustaining pedagogy to class lessons and school-wide initiatives as well as apply an anti-bias, anti-racist equity mindset to social-emotional learning.
