Addressing Barriers to Learning. Volume 11, Number 3. Summer 2006
Center for Mental Health in Schools at UCLA
Recent policy and program analyses conducted by the Center for Mental Health in Schools indicate that few support staff are full participants at school and district tables where major school improvement decisions are made, and that student support staff are therefore not appropriately accounted for in school improvement planning and implementation. This situation undermines efforts to enable all students to have an equal opportunity to succeed at school. This issue of the quarterly newsletter includes the following features and regular segments: (1) School Improvement: Where's Student Support?; (2) Analysis: Suicide Prevention and Schools: Key Issues; and (3) Ideas into Practice Doing Something about the Trend to Over-pathologize Students.
Descriptors: Suicide, Prevention, Educational Improvement, Educational Change, Intervention, Equal Education, Mental Health, Resource Staff
