Multi-Tiered Systems of Support in Elementary Schools

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Education must find its way from a soft science filled with belief, unproven ideas and misguided enthusiasm to a scientist practitioner model in which educators develop, test, modify, and implement effective educational strategies to help today's students maximize their acquisition of knowledge while simultaneously developing their capacities for thinking, reasoning, problem solving, stress hardiness and resilience. Alison Clark and Katherine Dockweiler have created a valuable desk reference and resource for psychologists, educators and allied health professionals working within elementary schools."

"This important guide will be instrumental for administrators, teachers, and other educators in meeting students' academic and social-emotional and behavioral needs. Program efficacy, as determined by regular program evaluation cycles, is at the heart of MTSS implementation and improvement. The path to building and sustaining effective supports for students' social-emotional and behavioral health is emphasized in this textbook, resulting in significant and transformative outcomes. Not only are Alison Clark and Katherine Dockweiler way ahead of the curve in proactively addressing school safety through promotion of student well-being and school-based mental health services, but they are pioneers in the field of school psychology in fostering meaningful change in hard-to-change systems."

Shelly Edwards, veteran school psychologist
