To Whom Do I Report My Concerns?
•Distressed: The behavior causes concern solely for the student’s well-being.
•Disturbed: The behavior may be highly inappropriate, irrational, or delusional and makes others uncomfortable.
•Disruptive: The behavior interrupts the classroom or work environment and represents an escalation of distress and/or inner disturbance.
