  1. School-based Mental Health and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports and High Schools Maryland Safe and Supportive Schools InitiativeA Collaborative Effort of the MSDE, Sheppard Pratt Health System, and Johns Hopkins University Susan Barrett Director, PBIS Regional TTAC Sheppard Pratt Health System, Implementer Partner Center on PBIS sbarrett@pbismaryland.org

  2. Interconnected Systems Framework for School Mental Health • Tier I: Universal/Prevention for All • Coordinated Systems, Data, Practices for Promoting Healthy Social • and Emotional Development for ALL Students • School Improvement team gives priority to social and emotional health • Mental Health skill development for students, staff/, families and communities • Social Emotional Learning curricula for all students • Safe & caring learning environments • Partnerships between school, home and the community • Decision making framework used to guide and implement best practices that consider unique strengths and challenges of each school community

  3. MDS3 Initiative • Funding: U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Safe and Healthy Students (OSHS) • Number of awards: 11 states (of 33 applicants): Arizona, California, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, South Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia and Wisconsin are S3 Grantees in the first cohort • Amount: 13M • Length: 4 years (October 2010-2014) • Partners: MSDE, Sheppard Pratt Health System, Johns Hopkins University

  4. MDS3 Goals  1) Assess school climate, student engagement, and the school environment,  2) Implement evidence-based programs (EBPs) to meet student needs, based on survey 3) Improve conditions for learning, 4) Reduce school violence and substance use, and improve student engagement and the school environment to support student learning.

  5. Keys to 10 Year Success Commitment of leadership at state, district and school levels Private, public, & university partnership Standards and Protocols developed and implemented INFRASTRUCTURE developed to support state and regional training capacity State-wide impact: 877 schools in all 24 systems trained 740 implementing Tier 1/Universal PBIS with fidelity PBIS Maryland WEBSITE and DATABASE, WIKI (www.pbismaryland.org)

  6. Keys to 10 Year Success (cont) • Ongoing Technical Assistance-Coaching Capacity (400 trained) • Ongoing Evaluation/Progress Monitoring • Evaluation Tools • Ongoing Data Collection for Decision Making • IPI (Implementation Phases Inventory), SETs, SWIS, BOQ • Ongoing expansion of Local School System infrastructure as numbers of schools increase—staff designation, coaches for schools, and funding • Federal Grants to support Rigorous Randomized Evaluation Activity through JHU

  7. USDOE’s S3 School Climate Model

  8. Using Lessons Learned to Build Next Phase • Training must be ongoing and connected to previous and upcoming activities. • High schools require additional supports to successfully launch PBIS and implement it with fidelity. • Adolescent students with unmet social and emotional needs create challenges • High schools are often unprepared to implement Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions or to address mental health needs and resources at the local and state level have been ?? • Relatively few developmentally appropriate EBPs (Greenberg et al., 2001). • Coaching is NECESSARY and supported by evidence (NIRN) • School Liaisons need to have a small school to staff person ratio (PBIS Plus-6:1; MDS3 3:1) • Need to make the Focus School condition worthwhile for those schools.

  9. Maryland Safe and Supportive Schools (MDS3) Implementation “develop capacity in schools to improve” Research and evaluation “sustainable system to measure” Administration “disseminate outcomes to stakeholders”

  10. Methodology • Participating Schools • 52 high schools across the state of Maryland • 10 districts: Anne Arundel, Baltimore County, Charles, Caroline, Dorchester, Somerset, Washington, Wicomico, Worcester, and Queen Anne’s • Second cohort of up to 8 additional schools possible for spring 2012, for a total of 60 schools • Design • 3 years (spring 2011 through summer 2014) • All 52 schools participated in the data collection activities • 29 “implementation schools” who are implementing the MDS3 Initiative • 23 schools are in the “focus” or control group • Schools were randomly assigned to these groups

  11. Design of MDS3 Observational Study Funded by William T. Grant Foundation 4 data points, over 3 years 2 data collectors (1 ASSIST and 1 SAfETy) 25 classrooms per school (≈1500 per time point) 30+ non-classroom locations Using handheld devices to collect data Instruments Assessing School Settings: Interactions of Students & Teachers (ASSIST): Rusby et al. (2001); Cash & Debnam Praise, opportunities to respond, punishing statements, transitions, supervision, positive interactions, engagement, aggressive behavior etc. Both event based and global ratings School Assessment for Environmental Typology (SAfETy): Bradshaw, Lindstrom Johnson, Milam, & Furr-Holden Features of the school environment that encourage access control, surveillance, territoriality, physical maintenance, and behavioral management (e.g., disorder, substance use, broken windows)

  12. Menu of Evidence-Based Programs Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS; Sugai & Horner, 2006) 3 tiered prevention model, focused on climate and behavior management Olweus Bullying Prevention Program (Olweus, 2007) Bullying and school climate Botvin’s Life Skills program (Botvin et al., 2006) Substance abuse prevention Check-in/Check-Out (Hawken & Horner, 2003) Mentoring and behavior management Check & Connect (Anderson et al., 2004) Mentoring and truancy prevention Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools (Kataoka et al., 2003) Focused on mental health issues (e.g., anxiety, depression)

  13. Center for School Based Mental HealthNancy Lever and Sharon Stephan • Link to EBP resources specific to HS • Mobilize student, family, community • CBITS • Community Resource Mapping Manual • Cross train • Common Calendar • Increase ISF awareness, visibility

  14. MDS3 School Climate Model: % Time Spent on “Valued Outcomes”

  18. Evidence-Based ProgramsAnticipated Implementation for Year Two

  19. MDS3 Data Sources Data for Decision-making: Web-based school climate survey (students, school staff, parents) Site visits - Health and safety of school environment School-level records: referrals, suspensions, attendance, nurse and counselor log, academics School-wide Evaluation Tool (SET), Individual Student Systems Evaluation Tool (ISSET)

  20. Spring 2011 MSD3 Student Climate Survey Results Safety ___% feel safe at school ___% reported being bullied during the school year ___% reported that other students try to stop bullying ___% often or very often feel sad ___% reported that substance abuse is a problem at their school

  26. Stages of Implementation Fixsen Should we do it Getting it right Making it better

  27. Expanding the SWPBS Implementation Blueprint www.pbis.org ISF Leadership Team ISF Implementation Team Systems Coach Content Family Community Implementation Demonstrations

  28. Policy: Shapes Adult Behavior Equal priority to • Social Emotional Health and Wellbeing • Academic Achievement • Academic Behaviors • Organizational Skills • Team Problem Solving • Study Skills

  29. Training • Activity Based Training • WIIFM • Resource/Continuum Mapping • Inventory current interventions, practices • Service Delivery Teams- Who? • organization, role and function, communication • from case management to systems planning • assess skills, competencies across staff • Data: Student List, Early Warning Systems, ODR as screening tool • Implementation Snapshots and Practice Profiles

  30. WIIFM? Why Am I Here? • How can I use this training to benefit the work I do everyday? • Prioritize which topics align with your district’s mission • With your schools goals • Share your thoughts at your table

  31. Before you add one more thing…. www.safetycenter.navy.mil

  32. Resource Mapping • Taking Inventory • Linking to Outcome/Strategic Plan • How do we support adults? • How do we make sure we invest in what works with our students/youth? • What data will help keep us on track?

  33. Triangle Activity: Applying the Three-Tiered Logic to Your School , District or State Tier 3 Practices, Initiatives, Programs for a FEW Tier 2 Practices, Initiatives, Programs for SOME Tier 1 Practices, Initiatives, Programs for ALL

  34. Screening & Feedback • Essential to developing effective systems • Effective systems allow for high fidelity of implementation • Often overlooked

  35. Activity: Student List Who gets access to an intervention that integrates academic/behavioral support ? Choose 6 students.

  36. Activity: Student List • Do you have rules for access? • Do you need to lower the threshold? • Are there other sources of data available? • Can you get access to a data dash board? • What else should we know about the students? • Do any staff in building have relationship with the student? • What are some possible political implications of choosing the students you chose? • Leads to the integration • Reflect on the team dynamics

  37. Decision Rules for Access to Advanced Tiers (and decision rules for prevention-if we can predict the trajectories , then we can prevent it from happening) • Youth has 2 Major ODRs • Youth has 1 Suspension • Youth experiences more than ? minutes out of instruction • Youth misses more than ? days unexcused absences • Youth drops GPA by more than ?? • Youth – benchmark testing- McIntosh • Youth- incomplete class work/homework • Attendance (look at predictors for drop-out and school completion) • Admin Referral • Teacher/Staff Referral • Family Referral • Other: Services and Interventions are available as soon as the student demonstrates a need

  38. Screening: Early Warning Systems • Research is clear that ninth grade is a “make or break” year. More students fail ninth grade than any other grade in high school, and a disproportionate number of students who are held back in ninth grade subsequently drop out (Herlihy, 2007). • The most powerful predictors of whether a student will complete high school include course performance and attendance during the first year of high school (Allensworth & Easton, 2005; 2007). • Therefore, systematic collection of student attendance and course performance data can be used to develop an effective early warning system that can also be tailored to local contexts. http://betterhighschools.org/ews.asp#EWS1

  39. Relationship

  40. Critical Features for Implementing Advanced Tiers of Support: • Establish decision rules for access to the intervention • Explore data and “look” for students in need **Refrain from grouping students with similar life circumstance (divorce/bully etc) • Group based on demonstrated need- response to the life circumstance and the coping skills required • Interventions are linked directly to the SW expectations and/or academic goals • Interventions are always available to students • Monitor progress of student- (outcome with data in and data out) • Staff are trained, receive ongoing support, and are provided feedback.

  41. Types of Coaching: Selection and Recruitment for the “Right Fit” Coaching for Individual Change: focus on skill development, support and performance feedback (content specific: academic, behavior) Coaching for Team/Group Change: focus on collaboration and facilitation, group dynamics Coaching for Systems Change: focus on organizational change

  42. Systems Coach

  43. Support To Leadership • Listen, model • Advocate for School-Wide Support through data • Broker Resources to Include EBPs • Be a “New Pair of Eyes” • Provide an Objective View of a Situation • Lead in the Direction of Sustainability

  44. Skill/Coach for Practitioners • Provide Direct Training, recruit next trainer • Serve as the System Level Interventionist • Promote Common Language That’s Productive • Provide Scaffolding • Model Active Listening

  45. Facilitator/Communicator • Develop Effective Communication Systems • Facilitate Sharing Different Views and Perspectives • Guide Through: • a. Self-Assessment of Efficiency • Evaluation • Needs Assessment • Use of Data • Critical Features of Systems and Programs
