  Case: EBD Behavior Issue
A male student in the 2nd grade is in a full inclusion classroom with a general and special education teacher. This student is very disruptive and has already been labeled EBD. He continue to disrupt the classroom by flipping over desk, chairs, throwing things, and being so disruptive the entire class has to stop. The teachers have had administration come into the classroom over ten times. Their response is always to try to calm the student down and provide positive discipline. His behavior may change for the moment but is never consistent. He should be placed in the EBD classroom but they do not want to move him in the middle of the school year.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is always a tough issue to deal with. Other students in the classroom have the right to learn and not be constantly disrupted by one student. Talking to the EBD parent is always helpful. Parents want the best for their child. The parent may be willing to support you with the administration on moving the student even in the middle of the year. Explain the benefits of the move for their child.
