Examples of Possible Interventions

The various interventions and supports are only for your consideration. There are many levels of support needed for individual students, therefore, there is not one recommended plan. Please note the list is not all-exhaustive and schools should customize a plan for individual students based upon available supports and resources. The focus is on prevention and strategies should focus on supportive, rather than disciplinary, intervention techniques. Teams should follow up with plans to ensure students are receiving the necessary supports.
