Behavior Systems Health Check

 

Purpose

The Behavior Systems Health Check is a structured, leadership-level review designed to help schools and early childhood programs step back and assess how behavior decisions are currently being made.

 

Many organizations are responding to behavior concerns without a clear picture of patterns, system strengths, or gaps. This Health Check provides clarity so leaders can make informed decisions rather than reacting case by case.

 

This is not an evaluation or audit. It is a facilitated review focused on understanding, alignment, and next steps.

 

Who This Is For

• This Health Check is designed for:

• school district leadership teams

• building administrators

• special education and student services leadership

• early childhood and daycare program directors

• program owners and administrators

 

It is most helpful for organizations that:

• see repeated behavior concerns without clear trends

• experience inconsistency across classrooms or staff

• receive ongoing parent questions related to behavior

• want to strengthen routines, expectations, and follow through

• need outside perspective without outsourcing implementation

 

What Is Reviewed

• The Health Check focuses on existing systems and practices, which may include:

• behavior referral and response patterns

• use of available data to guide decisions

• routines and expectations across settings

• staff response consistency

• communication within teams

• leadership clarity around monitoring versus intervention

 

No new data collection is required.

 

Format

• 60 to 90 minute facilitated session

• Virtual first

• On site option available by request

• Leadership participation recommended

 

Outcomes

Organizations typically leave the Health Check with:

• a clearer understanding of current strengths

• identification of system level gaps or bottlenecks

• prioritized recommendations for next steps

• shared language to support internal alignment

 

The goal is not more meetings, but better decisions.

 

How This Fits Into Ongoing Support

The Health Check can stand alone or serve as a starting point for:

• a short term 90 day pilot focused on implementation support

• ongoing consultative systems support

• internal planning and reflection.

​

There is no obligation to continue beyond the Health Check.

 

What This Is and Is Not

This service is:

• consultative and educational

• systems focused

• designed to strengthen internal capacity

 

This service is not:

• direct student or child treatment

• staff replacement or daily implementation

• crisis or emergency intervention

 

All implementation decisions remain the responsibility of the organization.

 

Next Steps

Organizations interested in the Behavior Systems Health Check typically begin with a brief fit check to confirm alignment and determine whether this service meets current needs.

All services provided through the Behavior Systems Health Check are consultative and educational in nature and do not constitute clinical, therapeutic, or emergency services.
