Behavior Intervention

A Precision Data-Driven Approach to Support Positive Behavior for All Students

With LGL’s Behavior Intervention System you can operationalize your behavior initiatives with fidelity using data to drive the process

LGL’s behavior system relies on data—rather than opinion or emotions—to create a supportive and fair environment for students. By collecting clear, measurable information about specific behaviors through observation or tracking tools, teachers can better understand each student’s needs. This evidence-based approach allows all school personnel to implement targeted interventions and monitor progress, making adjustments as needed. 

Focusing on specific student behaviors:

  • Treats every student consistently and transparently
  • Builds trust and encourages growth
  • Creates a welcoming classroom where every student thrives

Our experienced trainers provide stakeholder training for all administrators, teachers, and support staff. Regardless of the behavior initiatives that you have in place, we train administrators, teachers, and support staff to observe the systems and processes at each tier. This allows a school or district to synergistically move students to a tier that offers more support or back to a lower tier as they progress.

Steps in the LGL Process

We apply the same principles and concepts used in our reading and mathematics intervention to behavior intervention, creating behavior goals, assessing student behavior, developing an evidence-based process to close gaps and build strengths, and monitoring and adjusting student progress in real-time.

The steps in our Behavior Intervention System include:

  • Collaborate to develop specific behavior expectations for all students
  • Measure student behavior with the LGL Core Behavior Assessment Tool
  • Collaborate with you to develop clear processes to correct behavior deficits and strengthen core behaviors
  • Monitor student behavior with the LGL Progress Monitoring Tool

The LGL Behavior Intervention System calibrates school language and the school processes that support behavior, creating equity in how everyone approaches behavior.  Students receive core behavior instruction that is tracked and allows data to drive conversations with an outcome that gets students what they need.

We support school staff in fidelity-based data collection and intervention practices so that the right students are supported with the right targeted interventions. Our data-driven and objective behavior process reduces educator bias (conscious or unconscious) and helps all staff understand that maladaptive behaviors need instruction more often than they need a punishment. It supports accountability through data-driven processes and does not rely on our emotions on a particular day regarding student behavior.

LGL’s Behavior System Technology: BEAM

The technology component of our system is called BEAM, Behavior Evaluation And Monitoring. This technology component allows schools and districts to use what they learned and to easily collect data on students. Whether it is for students with a behavior intervention plan (BIP) in tiers 2 or 3 or for any general student who may demonstrate an unexpected behavior, the idea is to make data collection easy and natural. Teachers or staff will use a mobile phone app to easily collect data any time during a student’s interaction with their school. This data collection model, made easy, can flag students experiencing difficulties proactively. A strong core can prevent minor behavior incidents from becoming issues in the first place.

The Power of Prevention: Building Strong Behavior Systems

This three-part CASE webinar series explores how school and district leaders can take a proactive, data-driven approach to behavior within an MTSS framework. Through engaging sessions, viewers will learn how to evaluate current behavior systems, build effective Behavior Problem-Solving Teams, and use real-time data to guide decision-making. Each session features insights into Let’s Go Learn’s Core Behavior Assessment Tool and its role in supporting prevention-focused strategies that lead to lasting student success. Whether you’re just getting started or looking to strengthen your existing framework, this series provides the foundation to take action confidently.

Listen to our podcast, Accelerating Education, and a discussion about behavior, with Dr. Angela Bost. In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Bost, a former Deputy Superintendent of a large school district, discusses the critical intersection of behavior management and academic performance in schools. She emphasizes the need for a proactive approach to student behavior, integrating it with academic support systems to improve overall student outcomes. Dr. Bost shares insights on the challenges faced by educators in addressing behavior issues, the importance of a strong behavior framework, and the role of technology in assessing and monitoring student behavior. The discussion highlights the necessity for districts to develop a comprehensive behavior core and the support needed to operationalize it effectively.
