Student Behavior Protocol

Each student responds to information differently. Below are the behaviors that I will consider to be important to raise concern. Together, we can better ensure your student is prepared and set for success.

Emotional Outbursts

Academic Awareness

Physical Harm

Disruptive Behavior

Escaping Class

Define secondary messages with interactivity

Establish a flow throughthe content

Hierarchize and give visual weight to the main content

Escaping Class

Students have needs, I get that!

This raises concern when a student is asking to leave my classroom 3 or more times a week regularly. Asking to leave class includes going to the restroom, going to see the nurse, etc.

Emotional Outbursts

Big Feelings in Small Bodies

Students have a lot going on, especially with multiple teachers, other students, and any outside of school commitments. However, emotional outbursts in any form (crying, screaming, social withdrawal) that goes against a students personality will raise concern.

Disruptive Behavior

Students learn all together, or not at all.

Disruptive Behavior that would raise concern is whe a student is reminded to focus more than 3 times in a class period. When one student is not focusing, then other students are off topic and now the content is not being learned. I love hearing about what students did over break or the weekend, but during transition or open discussion times.

Physical Harm

School is a safe space.

Although this is standard for schools, Physical Harm that raises concern within my classroom includes self harm. Students go through a mirage of emotions, some we can see and others we cannot. Self-harm appears in a variety of ways, including cuts, eating disorders, hitting self or head off objects, etc.

Academic Awareness

Students are responsible for grades, but we are responsible for students.

Academic Awareness concerns begin when there is a decrease in a studnets participation, assignments being turned in, or lower test scores.
