Description
Summary:Successful implementation of school-wide positive behavior support requires a continuous evaluation of program data. It also requires an ongoing review of how those data relate to organizational strengths, needs, professional development concerns, and the larger community.

This article will describe how a continuous systems-level assessment process is being implemented in one urban middle school to address behavioral and academic objectives.
