Which tier of positive behavior support is designed for students needing more intensive interventions?

The tier of positive behavior support designed for students needing more intensive interventions is Tier 3. This tier is specifically focused on providing targeted, individualized support for students who exhibit significant behavioral challenges that are not adequately addressed by universal or targeted interventions.

In Tier 3, interventions are more personalized and often involve a thorough assessment of the student's specific needs. Strategies may include one-on-one behavior support plans, collaboration with special education professionals, or mental health services. This tier aims to address the underlying issues contributing to behavioral problems, ensuring that the support is not only reactive but also proactive in helping the student develop more positive behaviors.

By implementing these intensive interventions, educators and support staff hope to facilitate meaningful changes in behavior and improve the overall educational experience for these students.
