Annual student outcome goals should be primarily aligned with which of the following?

  1. State testing requirements

  2. The school's closing-the-gap action plans

  3. The goals of other school counselors in the district

  4. The school administrator's personal preferences

The correct answer is: The school's closing-the-gap action plans

Annual student outcome goals should primarily be aligned with the school's closing-the-gap action plans because these plans are specifically developed to address the needs and goals of the school. State testing requirements may be a contributing factor, but they should not be the main focus. The goals of other school counselors in the district may differ from the goals of a particular school, and the school administrator's personal preferences may not align with the needs of the students. Therefore, B is the most relevant and appropriate choice for aligning annual student outcome goals.
