American School Counselor Association

Educators report that challenging student behavior has significantly increased this school year. The causes for these challenging behaviors can range from isolation, depression, anxiety and aggression to bullying, cyberbullying, substance abuse and the lack of self-management and coping skills. For students, consequences of these behaviors often include discipline such as detention, suspension, expulsion and, in some cases, legal action. This ultimately leads to a variety of negative outcomes for students, including stigmatization, learning loss and exposure to the criminal justice system. There is another option. You can turn students’ challenging behavior into learning opportunities through behavioral intervention and restorative practices. Get the Guide to Student Behavioral Intervention here.
