I am a behavior support specialist working school-wide with low-income students playing a critical role in fostering positive student behavior and supporting academic success. I implement evidence-based strategies to address behavioral challenges, often collaborating with teachers, administrators, and families. Responsibilities include conducting Behavior Support Plans, developing and implementing school wide incentives, and training staff on behavior management techniques. Specialists also address challenges linked to poverty by aligning mental health resources with school goals, enhancing universal programs, and mobilizing community resources to support students' social-emotional needs. This role requires cultural responsiveness and a focus on equity for all students
