Georgia educators cite need for more counselors and manageable workloads

The Professional Association of Georgia Educators (PAGE) surveys its members yearly. They include teachers, principals and other school staff across the state.

In 2022, PAGE found more than 69% of school counselors, social workers and psychologists, and about 56% of teachers, say their schools don’t have enough counselors to meet students’ needs.

Just 31% of teachers say their workload is manageable all or most of the time. Twenty-five percent say it’s never manageable.
