Data Challenges • Functional definition of spleems • Baseline data • Consistent sampling of classrooms • Resource intensive • No comparison data • Ratings of teachers who were trained but did not do it • Rating teachers who did not get GBG training • Obtaining meaningful data from schools 17
Lessons Learned • Large urban school districts pose challenges • Increasing resources can also increase demands on school administrators • Buy-in from administrators important • Address locally as well as at senior leadership level • Buy-in from teachers critical • Clinician support makes a significant difference (not necessarily clinical services) 18
Lessons Learned, continued • PAX Partner training significantly increase clinicians’ proficiency • Need champions at all levels • Champions can develop locally: word of mouth • Incentives helpful ≠ culture change • Consider implementation for entire school • “Competing” interventions in community • Funding 19
