Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 2-6, 2026, as School Counseling Week in the State of New York, in conjunction with the observance of National School Counseling Week

This resolution requests Governor Hochul to proclaim February 2-6, 2026, as School Counseling Week in New York State, aligning with National School Counseling Week. It recognizes school counselors' roles in supporting students' academic, social-emotional, and career development, and highlights the national student-to-counselor ratio (376:1) exceeding recommended standards. The bill is procedural and symbolic - it does not create new laws or directly affect anyone, but formally asks the Governor to issue a recognition. It was adopted by the Assembly on February 4, 2026.
