Student behavior is one of the most pressing challenges faced by schools and youth-serving organizations today. From preschoolers to high school seniors, behavior concerns can disrupt learning, overwhelm staff, and prevent students from reaching their full potential.

When educators are left to navigate these issues alone, it leads to burnout, staff turnover, and an increase in disciplinary actions that don’t always solve the root problem.
That’s where Behavior Consulting from INcompassing Education becomes a game-changer.
Why Behavior Consulting Matters
Across the nation, educators are seeing a dramatic rise in the complexity and intensity of student behavior. Whether it's preschool tantrums, elementary defiance, middle school social struggles, or high school mental health crises—schools need more than a reactive discipline plan. They need expert behavioral support, available when they need it most.

According to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), over 80% of public schools reported an increase in behavioral disruptions during the school year. This surge, driven by pandemic-related stress and unmet social-emotional needs, has placed an unprecedented strain on teachers and school leaders.
Common Struggles Without a Behavior Consultant:
Teachers feeling unsupported and overwhelmed
Reactive, inconsistent discipline practices
Increased suspensions and office referrals
Missed instructional time
Unaddressed trauma and social-emotional needs
Poor communication with families about behavior concerns
Research has shown that exclusionary discipline practices like suspension are linked to worse academic outcomes and increased dropout rates. Without the guidance of a trained behavior specialist, many schools resort to short-term fixes that don’t create lasting change.
