This study examined potential conflicts between expectations of receiving teachers in community schools and the behaviors of elementary students moving from a psychiatric treatment facility. Students had been using the AIMS (Assessments for Integration into Mainstream Settings) system. Potential conflicts in the areas of adaptability, self-direction, and managing anger were found. (DB)
