Administrator Support of a Behavioral System
Educators across the country are grappling with a noticeable rise in student behavioral challenges, many of which have been amplified by the residual effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, creating significant disruptions in schools and placing unprecedented strain on both educators and administrators. In the face of these complex issues, staff often report feeling unsupported and unequipped to manage student behavior effectively, contributing to a decline in morale and professional confidence. Leaders are being called upon to balance the urgent needs of students with the equally pressing responsibility of sustaining staff well-being.
