Behavior Support Team Development Process (10/2010)
Step I:
Examine mission statement of the team. Will you be dealing with both Academic and Behavioral or one
of the two? If both, what information do you need about the referred students in order to make a
decision? Identify the criteria and outcomes. Use the format below:
1. Begin with Broad Outcomes (What do we want to or achieve?) or Key Questions (What do we
want to know?)
2. Identify the scope, a Problem (scope and context) through the use of Data (Where we are
now?)
3. Translate Broad Outcomes into Specific Objectives with Criteria for Success based on data
(What exactly do we want to achieve by when?)
4. Identify Action items to get to the outcomes (What do we want to do?) (Strategic Plan) which
creates a Structure so that Structure so that follow through is an expectation
5. Monitor and Evaluate progress – Use Data to assess your progress (Did it work?)

of need. Triangle of Interventions within the Targeted/Secondary level (triangle within the triangle)
