FBA – What is a Functional Behavioral Assessment?

When students run into trouble at school, it’s not always because of academics. Often, behavior is the reason kids struggle. Kids may disrupt class, become withdrawn, or even cut class. 

Functional behavioral assessment (FBA) is a process schools use to figure out what’s causing challenging behavior. An FBA leads to a plan with strategies to improve the behavior.
