    The Student Assistance Program can be a great resource for teachers who are concerned about a student or are struggling with a student's behavior.  The Student Assistance Teams will collect data from other teachers who have the student, to see if anyone else is struggling with the same issues, or has the same concerns.  The team will also contact the parents and inform them of the concerns, and offer resources which will hopefully assist in removing barriers to the student's learning.  Listed below are several behavior signs of an adolescent who may be struggling with issues:
    Drop in Grades                                   Isolating Self
    Failure to Complete Assignments      Talking about Drug or Alcohol Use
    Decrease in Class Participation          Drawings related to Drug or Alcohol Use
    Short Attention Span                         Disoriented
    Absenteeism/Tardiness                     Issues with Peers
    Constantly Late for Class                   Deteriorating Personal Appearance
    Frequent Visits to the Nurse               Sleeping in Class
    Defiance of Rules                                Smell of Alcohol or Marijuana
    Emotional Outbursts                            Bloodshot Eyes
    Verbal Abuse                                       Frequent Complaints of Nausea
    Blaming, Denying                                 Slurred Speech
    Change in Friends                                Vandalism
    Erratic Behavior                                   Involvement in Thefts
    Carrying a Weapon                              Legal Problems
     
    Please refer to the Student Assistance Program if you are concerned about a student or notice these behaviors in a student.  We all want students to be successful in and outside of school, in all areas of their lives.  Mental Health issues, drug abuse, family problems, and social issues often prevent students from focusing on their academics.  We want to address these issues so they can be successful and productive at Wilson!!!!
