This session will unpack the benefits of effective self-management interventions in the schools, emphasizing practical tools to implement self-monitoring interventions with students demonstrating challenging behaviors. Participants will learn the specific steps to develop and implement self-monitoring systems to support students of various ages and developmental levels. The presenters will provide strategies for decisions based on data that is collected through self-monitoring interventions to further inform intervention fading and report progress.

School psychologists are uniquely trained to lead diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) work at the school and district levels. Dr. Shelvin will provide a deep analysis of the systemic barriers for marginalized students and describe how school psychologists can serve as change agents and leverage their skills to address those barriers. Participants will learn strategies to use data, relationship building, consultation, and program evaluation to dismantle systemic oppression in education.

Recent prevalence rates note that in a postpandemic world, eating disorders among children and adolescents have substantially increased. Thus, when working with the school-age population, school psychologists greatly benefit from having a background in eating disorders, as they are a likely concern practitioners will encounter in their practice. This presentation will review common childhood eating disorders symptoms and risk factors, discuss common evidence-based treatment methods, and explore the school psychologist’s role in collaborating with other professionals to provide care.
