Some students with disabilities may show behaviors which are challenging for parents and teachers to handle at home and at school.  Often, the behaviors rise from a difficulty related to the child's disability-  such as the ability to communicate what they need, the abIlity to regulate their emotional state, the ability to tolerate changes to the environment, or sensory sensitivities to light, touch or sounds. For students in Special Education, the Individualized Education Program (IEP) team will address any behavioral issues which are getting in the way of the student participating in the classroom and interacting with peers.
