challenging behavior with appropriate supports and services
Use proactive practices to foster a positive school climate
Use Data-based decision making Work as a community to develop and
implement interventions Foster family involvement (work with
our Title One representative and our PTO President)

Development of a Three Tiered Approach
Tier 1: Universal Interventions: create positive, respectful, and responsive learning environments for all students, by developing consistency across staff and settings regarding: Stated expectations for student behavior Staff response to unwanted behaviors Staff responses to desired behaviors Staff response to discipline infractions
8
Development of a Three Tiered Approach
Tier 2: Secondary Interventions: intervene early with students, who are beginning to display patterns of chronic behavior problems to prevent the need for more restrictive responses (alternative school placements) Preferred Options include:Check-in systemsSocial skill training MentoringInstructional accommodations
9
Development of a Three Tiered Approach
Tier 3: Individualized Interventions for Students with Intensive Needs: Ensure that students with disabilities are successful, intensive individualized behavior support plans may be needed.
Plans are based on a behavior assessment and are developed with an emphasize on:
