What qualifications do the Behavior Specialists have?

The Behavior Specialists at The Burkard School are not just well-meaning adults with sticker charts. They’re trained professionals who bring serious expertise to the table. Each specialist is equipped with a strong background in behavioral support strategies, and they work hand-in-hand with the classroom teacher to create a well-rounded, supportive learning environment. Every classroom is staffed with both a skilled educator and a Behavior Specialist, which means your child gets academic guidance and behavioral support as a package deal. These aren’t random hires or part-time aides. They’re deeply committed to understanding each child’s needs and helping them thrive in every setting, whether it’s managing transitions, building routines, or simply creating a sense of calm and consistency.
