Presentation Abstract
The presentation will provide an overview of a secondary in-school suspension program using a positive behavior intervention and supports model that includes an evidence-based social emotional behavior curriculum effective in targeting at-risk students. Structuring in-school suspension programs in a way that provides students with the means to change poor behaviors when presented with the opportunity to do so is a viable solution to classroom behavior problems plaguing secondary schools today. This presentation will be valuable to education leaders who desire to transform their ISS program into one that reduces recidivism rates and makes academics and behavior modification a priority. The presenters will also discuss ideas for using this social emotional learning curriculum in the elementary setting.
