Meeting on students with BEHAVIOR concerns: Who should be a part of the meeting? Does the entire team need to be there or do we need to have a modified group in attendance?

I think behavior issues need to be addressed earlier at the ECC than second semester. We have a couple of students that NEED a behavior plan and parents to be on board and know it is an issue early on.

I think that if the meeting is to address behavior only with no academic concerns, then the people involved should not be the SST rather those that can address the behaviors. I'm thinking of the gen. ed. teacher, parents, principal (case manager), school psychologist, social worker and any outside sources such as Community Mental Health counselor. I think we need to keep the focus of the SST as intervention for reading and not overwork or dilute their purpose.

I would agree, perhaps we have a "behavior" team in place when we are seeking information regarding student behaviors.
