Supporting All Students: How ECP Developed and Implemented a Tiered Behavior System
1Supporting All Students
Do Now
Do Now:1. List 10-15 misbehaviors that have happened in the past month, and how you responded to eachtry to list a range of behaviors from most minor to most extreme.
2. Do you believe that all teachers and staff members at your school are well-equipped to positively impact student behavior? Why or why not?

Agenda and Introductions3
2012-2013 ECP Grades 4-8 Data:1 expulsion and 29 suspensions (61 missed days of instruction)
Through February 2013 there had already been 21 suspensions (42 missed days of instruction)

New Data7
Use Response to Intervention and Positive Behavior Support ModelsOur Positive Behavior Support system exists for three purposes: 1) Maintain a focused and professional learning environment, 2) Build the habits and norms that will empower our scholars to be successful in outside professional settings, 3) Maximize time for high impact instructionSupporting All Students
Our Process
8
Consider what makes a warm, strict, joyful, positive, strong school culture.
Tier 1 is what we do to build culture and reaches the majority of our students.
The next step was to create and define rest of tiers.

Our Process9

Our Process10
1. WWs will have an understanding that consistent, school-wide responses to behavior improves school culture and student learning.
2. WWs will create a draft response to behavior flow chart adapted to your school.
3. WWs will create a draft of tiered behavior response practice and prevention to use with your team.Supporting All Students

Supporting All Students
In the moment, minor or major?Teacher assesses the incident of disruption as MINOR:-containable and not dangerous-low/medium impact on learning environment-not likely to involve student distress-involves small number of studentsTeacher assesses the incident of disruption as MAJOR:-high complexity: multiple students/not containable-involves danger/risk-involves high levels of distress or conflict environment-learning environment disrupted in a serious manner-physical disturbance (fight, etc)Student Misbehavior16
Supporting All Students
Tier 1 DefinitionWhat you would expect from a middle school classroomkids test boundaries in developmentally appropriate ways, and ECP teachers are equipped to handle these behaviors with a nonverbal redirect, self-interrupt or a positively framed reminder.Behaviors include: Slouching, not taking notes, calling out, head down on desk, tapping pen/feet17
Supporting All Students
Tier 2 DefinitionStill what you would expect from a middle school classroomkids test boundaries in developmentally appropriate ways, and ECP teachers are equipped to handle these behaviors with a stern redirect, PRIDE point deduction, and a parent phone call.Behaviors include: Repeated Tier 1, incorrect materials, uniform deductions, gum/candy, not prepared for school, minor disrespect18
Supporting All Students
Tier 3 DefinitionThese behaviors are a more serious breach of our schools PRIDE values. They endanger the safety and well-being of others in class and/or violate the integrity of our college-prep learning environment. Teachers should use a very stern redirect to immediately stop student behavior, send the student to the office, and contact parents that day to explain the situation or if necessary set up an in-person meeting within the next 2-3 days. As a follow up, teacher should log detailed account of incident in Kickboard and consult with RG for additional next steps.RG or another member of the leadership team may choose to participate in the parent meeting depending on the severity/frequency of the offense.Behaviors include: Repeated Tier 2, throwing things, profanity, lying, cheating19
Supporting All Students
Tier 4 DefinitionThese are the most egregious student offenses and could result in student suspension (in-school or out) or expulsion. These behaviors pose an immediate threat to school safety and may even break the law. Teachers should immediately text the team to get an escort for the student. As a follow up, teacher should log detailed account of incident in Kickboard and consult with RG for additional next steps.Behaviors include: Repeated Tier 3, anything suspendable according to the California Ed Code20
Categorize Behaviors:Teams: look back at to your DO NOW questions and at the behaviors you wrote.Categorize behaviors based on ECP tiers based on the ECP flowchart.

Practicing ECPs Tiers21
Work with your team:Choose how many tiers your team needsChoose how will you define each tierRe-define tiers, and then re-categorize behaviors from Do Now based on the tiers you created

Break23
Without looking back at your definitions (unless you have to!), summarize the definitions of the tiers that you created.Supporting All Students

Goals for ECP Staff:
All ECP Staff will be able to correctly identify behaviors that fit into our school-wide tiers.All ECP Staff will be able to list essential in-the-moment AND follow-up responses to student behavior in each of the four tiers.All ECP Staff will practice delivering in-the-moment responses with appropriate positive framing, economy of language, body language, and tone.
