Reaching & Teaching Struggling Learners Behavior Intervention Plan — Exceptional Children A behavioral intervention plan (BIP) is designed for a specific child to try to help that child learn to change her or his behavior. Once the function of a student's behavior has been determined, the Individual Education Program (IEP) Team should develop the behavior intervention plan A behavioral intervention plan can be thought of as a plan to support the student in order to help him or her change behavior. As the IEP team is developing the BIP, they should keep in mind some key characteristics of individual positive behavioral support interventions. Comprehensive behavioral intervention plans have antecedent and setting event modifications, the teaching of alternative skills, consequence strategies, and lifestyle interventions. When the IEP team is ready to create a behavior intervention plan, they should start by brainstorming possible interventions and then clarifying the items on the brainstorm list. There are three types of alternative skill instruction.

Early Warning Systems One in every four public school students in the United States fails to graduate from high school. Many students who do graduate and go on to college struggle to receive a degree. Less than 25 percent of students from low-income families graduate from college within six years. Early warning systems can be powerful tools that provide information to change educators’ practices and help students get back on track. Research AIR researchers explore the indicators that signal students’ eventual readiness for college and career. Indicators of College Success AIR researchers are undertaking analyses that will shape the field’s understanding of the policies and practices most likely to increase the number of students who graduate from high school ready for college. Regional Educational Laboratory Midwest Design AIR’s design team knows the demands faced by state, district, and school staff.

Graduation Town Dropout Challenge Check out the 2013-2014 Video Competition... The high school graduation rate is a barometer of the health of American society and the skill level of its future workforce (1). However, research shows -- a students' circumstances do not dictate success -- educational experiences do. Today, one out of every four Michigan students fail to graduate from public high school with his or her freshman class. Research shows most students send distress signals years before they drop out of school. During the summer of 2009, I issued a challenge to all Michigan schools to identify 10-15 students in all elementary, middle and high schools who are nearing or in a transition year with multiple dropout risk factors and provide research-based supports and interventions. A recent study confirms that schools in the Challenge have statistically significant lower dropout rates than those not yet part of the Challenge. Mike Flanagan State Superintendent
