Board hears plan for full‑time behavior support teacher to staff instructional reset space at LBES
Summary
Tracy Roehrick proposed adding a full-time teacher to run a behavior-support instructional space at LBES focused on teaching coping and regulation strategies; she emphasized the space is for "teaching and learning rather than disciplinary action."
Tracy Roehrick outlined a proposal to create a behavior-support instructional space at Lake Bluff Elementary (LBES) staffed by a new full-time teacher who would teach coping skills, emotional regulation, executive-function strategies, and social-emotional development.
Roehrick said the role is meant to support students with identified plans, special education services, or significant dysregulation and stressed the space is for "teaching and learning rather than disciplinary action." She described plans for a reset protocol, monitoring escalation patterns, and pairing the teacher with shared or 1:1 paraprofessionals to reinforce instruction and track outcomes.
