Behavior conference guides

The hardest family meeting, made a little easier.

When a student is removed from class, the conversation that follows matters. Our guides help educators lead the meeting with curiosity and ensure families leave with a plan they helped build.

Why it matters

Families often walk in braced for judgment.

A conference after a classroom removal can feel like a verdict. Parents get defensive. Educators get rushed. Everyone leaves with a different idea of what happens next.

Our guides change the starting point. They treat behavior as information, open with the student’s strengths, and keep the meeting focused on one shared goal: getting the student back to class and set up to succeed.

How it works

One page to guide the talk. One page to plan together.

Connected to Frankly

The conversation keeps going at home.

Every plan includes QR codes that link to short Frankly videos. Families can watch on their phone after the meeting and get practical ideas for supporting their child, in English or Spanish.

  • Behavior is communication
  • Keep the end in mind

Made for every family

Child and teen. English and Spanish.

Four versions share one structure, so staff learn it once. Each speaks to its age group, and the Spanish editions are written for Spanish-speaking families, not just translated.
