Every student deserves access to safe and supportive learning environments, so what does this look like for students in your community? During this session, hear how Bettendorf Schools developed a Therapeutic Learning Classroom through community collaboration using the Multi-Tiered System of Supports framework (MTSS). With staff capacity of implementation in mind, the district created a community of educational leaders responsible for facilitating teams that support students with behavioral health concerns. By focusing on Tier Three Interventions, Bettendorf has increased staff members' capacity to reduce dysregulation and minimize classroom disruptions. By the end of this session, you'll have exclusive access to the tools Bettendorf used to develop their Therapeutic Learning Classroom to use as you envision what access to safe and supportive learning environments looks like in your community!
