OSCA Conference
Thank you to all who joined us for the 2025 OSCA Annual Conference at Lincoln High School, Portland, Oregon on Friday, October 10, 2025.
About the Conference
Every year, the Oregon School Counselor Association brings together school counselors, counselor educators, graduate students, Oregon state educational leaders, guest speakers and others in related fields for a day dedicated to furthering and enriching our profession. We are proud to celebrate the dedicated individuals in our profession from across the state.
Our conference includes a variety of activities: professional development, new ideas, knowledge- and resource-sharing, opportunities to meet and learn from other counselors, inspiration, and recognition.
We also present the Oregon School Counselor of the Year (SCOY) Award and acknowledge the winners of our annual grants and scholarships.
