This designation is awarded to schools whose counseling programs align with the criteria set in the ASCA National Model, schools that are committed to delivering a comprehensive data-driven school counseling program and creating an exemplary educational environment.
The RAMP designation was awarded to 100 schools nationwide for the 2010/2011 school year and Ippolito Elementary School was one of the two schools in the state of Florida to earn this recognition. Also, it is the first Hillsborough County Public School to receive this designation. |
