In this book, educators learn how teachers, administrators, and support staff can build a collaborative and cooperative learning environment where high school students receive the positive behavioral support they need to suceed. Included are strategies on how to provide adequate supervision, forge relationships with alienated and disconnected students (and their families), and empower students to deal with anger and frustration rationally rather than recklessly. Insights into how the teenage brain influences behavior, for better or worse, are also provided.

Safe and Healthy Secondary Schools uses true-to-life stories to highlight how educators can expand their sphere of influence beyond individual classrooms to all areas of a school. Specific teaching techniques that stop and correct inappropreate behaviors on the spot are explained, as well as methods for building better relationships between educators and students.
