SAEBRS
Students will participate in the second administration of the Social Academic and Emotional Behavior Rating Scale (SAEBRS) next week. This universal tool focuses on the following areas:
- Social (Arguing, Temper Outbursts, Disruptive Behavior)
- Emotional (Sadness, Anxiety, Withdrawal, Lack of Resilience)
- Academic (Academic Engagement, Production of Acceptable Work, Preparedness).
If a screening shows that a student would benefit from additional support, parents will be contacted and collaborate with the school team to problem-solve and determine the next steps.
Thank you for your support and assistance in ensuring each of our students has the opportunity to achieve academic and social-emotional success. If you ever need to report a concern regarding a student, parents are urged to call the school or report information through the “Report Inappropriate Behavior” link on the Wood Oaks website. We are here to help and support all Wood Oaks students.
