[QUOTE="TheBoyHasArrived, post: 550328, member: 14829"] This is all good information, I'm taking notes for our meeting. I'm an Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) in the schools, so I've not had a ton of experience with behavior plans. I've noticed the sensory equipment being used as a "reward" for tantrums, etc., and have that listed to discuss. The contained classroom staff is absolutely not equipped to teach replacement behaviors; we've observed that already. They very much seem to want to do the right things, but they are just managing behaviors, not teaching new ones. If the school's behaviorist isn't competent, we are going to see a private behavior specialist as well. To be honest, his behavior was so stable all summer, we had put it off thinking the behavior was improving as his language improved. But, we're seeing that's obviously not the case. [/QUOTE]
