Staff member says district behavior-tracking tool helps identify trends and target interventions
Summary
District staff described a behavior-tracking program that lets teams see when and where incidents occur (playground, lunch, hallway), drill down to specific students or times, and design tiered supports and professional development. The district is reviewing costs for additional tier‑2 tracking features.
A staff member told the South Umpqua SD 19 board the district uses a behavior-tracking tool across school buildings to surface time- and place-based trends and guide interventions.
"So the whole disc all the buildings can really look at their data specifically and even down to specific students to look at those, trends and then problem solve," the staff member said, describing how teams can spot patterns such as repeated lunchtime incidents or hallway problems and then design supports. The staff member added: "It's a really excellent program."
Board members asked about whether incident patterns follow a class year to year. The staff member said teams dissect classroom behaviors to decide whether problems are environmental or driven by individual students and then form supports such as social‑skills groups, social stories, or targeted skill-building. "So they'll do social stories, look at really specific skills," the staff member said.
The presenter also said the district is assessing the cost of additional features for tracking tier‑2 supports so teams can monitor smaller group interventions and shared that Ryan had met with the behavior monitoring and skill-building team to review referrals and perspectives from elementary and middle schools. The board did not take action on the program at this meeting.
