  • GOAL # 1 - Teaching Our Students To Monitor And Self-regulate Their Behaviors

     

    To accomplish this goal we are making sure that every teacher has the appropriate materials and training needed to incorporate at least one of the the following curriculum in their classroom;

     

    • Superflex – uses superhero-type characters to help students regulate their behaviors and become problem solvers.
    • Brainworks – a program for providing students sensory breaks.
    • Class DOJO – helps older students monitor their own behaviors and collects data to share with parents and administrators.

  • GOAL # 2 – Maintain and/or Reduce Frequency Of Physical Restraints

     

    • Nonviolent Crisis Intervention training, designed to address the needs of students with autism, has been provided.

    • Provide refresher training on the TEACCH classroom model. TEACCH  is based on understanding the learning characteristics of individuals with autism and the use of visual supports to promote meaning and independence.

    • The Behavior Specialists’ Suite has been “remodeled” to provide a more clearly defined student area.  In addition, a sensory room has been set up, in the Behavior Specialists’ Suite as a calming area.

  • SCHOOL WIDE REWARD SYSTEM

     

    At the school-wide assembly, one student from each academic level will be recognized as a Behavior Student of the Month.  Each students’ parents will be invited to the assembly to see their child recognized and receive a certificate.

     

    Rewards and recognitions are built into individual classrooms
