The Behavior Support and Discipline Rubric is a self-assessment tool that allows educators to take stock of specific categories of practices related to behavior support and discipline. This information is designed to stimulate ongoing enhancements in the implementation of an effective progressive discipline strategy.

This rubric includes:

• A reflection on trusting relationships
• Proactive practices & Empathy-based interactions 
• A progressive plan
• A coordinated process to create a framework for behavior support and discipline.

Chronic absenteeism is a problem that warrants intentional problem-solving and we created a tool to help guide this process. This is an evidence-based process that facilitates a solution-oriented approach rather than getting stuck admiring the problem by focusing on factors that go beyond educators’ control.

When done right, problem-solving focuses on getting at the root cause that explains why the problem exists, which leads to more precise and likely effective solutions. Problem-solving typically has 4-steps that guide educators through a coordinated, cycle process to address an identified problem like chronic absenteeism.
