Teachers and school staff are not expected to address behavioral challenges throughout the school day, many times without the foundational understanding for how to do it. Enter the behavioral consultant, tasked with not only solving the behavior conundrum, but also collaborating with the staff so that they know how to do it themselves next time. Before we all burn rubber as we exit such a sticky situation, let's review what we already know and add to our current toolbox of how to provide such leadership and mentorship in a world where energy is already taxed and folks are running on empty.
