Student Intervention and Behavior
Goal: To create an education environment where students are held accountable for their actions, learn the skills and attitudes necessary to prevent misbehavior and act
appropriately when the return to the regular classroom.
Objectives20% reduction in the amount of overall suspensions as compared to the previous school year.
Components Academics – Student will complete academic assignments while assigned to ISS to ensure continued
academic progress.Social Skills – Students will receive social skills character education training by ISS teacher, professional
counselor and/or other mental health professionals. All ISS teachers will receive training.Service Learning – Students will participate as resources are available in their school community.Alternative Student Transition – Student will spend a specified period in the ISS program upon their
return from the Alternative Program. This period will allow students to receive orientation regarding policies/procedures, strengthen pro-social skill, and for a positive relationship with school staff. This will afford administrators, teachers and counselors the opportunity to plan appropriate interventions for students and integrate them back into the school community.
Reconnection – Students will have an opportunity to reconcile with the adult and/or student with whom they had conflict. This can be facilitated through written communication and or a mediation session.
Evaluation – The following areas will be formally evaluated, recidivism rate, ISS teacher/administration satisfaction, individual teacher referral rate, and suspension rate.

In- School Suspension Plan
Student Intervention and Behavior416-4240
Location 146SS (Continued)
Selection of StudentsStudents will be assigned to an In-School Suspension for an infraction that could warrant
an out of school suspension. Only administrators can refer students to the ISS program. ISS should be utilized as one of the interventions available in the disciplinary continuum. Students should be assigned for a period of 1 – 2 days.
ConditionsAdministrators have the discretion to increase the length of stay or use other disciplinary
actions if a student does not adhere to ISS rules and regulations. ISS capacity should not exceed 20 students per day.
ConclusionsThe Shelby County Schools ISS Program is an extension of the classroom/school
discipline plan which seeks to help students improve behavior while remaining in an education setting. This strategy provides a specific disciplinary action a school can utilize to assist with students displaying inappropriate behavior. ISS is a positive approach that prioritizes the needs and long-term goals of students.

• Counseling logs• Mentoring reports from faculty and student mentors• Number of referrals• Reports from ISS • Twenty day reports
Tertiary Interventions• If a teacher feels that a student’s behavior warrants an S Team, that
teacher can request the necessary paperwork from the chairperson to initiate the process. The teacher must show in the paperwork interventions that she has tried with the student before turning it over to the S Team.
• Once paperwork is complete, the chairperson convenes the S Team. It should consist of the referring teacher, at least one of the student’s other teachers, an administrator, a counselor, and the parent(s).
• The team will share information and come up with a behavior intervention plan for this student. All of the student’s teachers will be given a copy and they, along with the behavior specialist, will be responsible for monitoring the success of the interventions.
• Success of interventions will be determined by a decrease in targeted behavior based on Daily Trackers that are submitted to the student’s PSC.
