DiscussionQuestions
On a scale of 1‐5 (1=very low, 5= extremely comfortable), howwould you rate your district’s general confidence and/or level ofcomfort with supporting teachers and/or providing direct supportto students with Mental Health/social‐emotional needs (i.e. SELcurriculum, interventions, understanding of student needs)?
How do you feel this affects consistency and fidelity ofimplementation?
How do you think this affects reactivity to behavioral incidents? Forexample, lack of proactive implementation of SEL/Mental Healthsupports; rather, people reacting to incidents and requestingERMHS/ERICS or change of placement?
