Often, when a student is engaging in challenging behavior, the root cause can be connected to a social-emotional skill deficit. Behavior Support Plans establish a universal, district-wide protocol for supporting the social-emotional development of learners who may require Tier 3 programming. BSPs promotes the inclusivity of students within each educational setting by providing educators with preventative strategies and evidence-based approaches to proactively support students who may be demonstrating higher-rates of challenging behavior, while simultaneously ensuring educators have structured approaches to effectively respond to behaviors.
