Crisis Intervention Team
Contact: Dr. Jayna Jenkins, Director of Behavior, School Psychology and Mental Health ext 11590 or Dr. Chana Spier, Assistant Director ext. 11347
The BPS crisis response and recovery team are individuals trained specifically in crisis response to situations that may affect the whole school. Examples of categories that fit under the word crisis include:
- death of a student or staff member,
- a community tragedy that impacts the school or
- natural disasters.
In the event something like this occurs, the charter school principal should reach out to the Director of Behavior, School Psychology and/or the Coordinator and the Director of Charter Schools. The team will then reach out to the principal and discuss the type of crisis details and response.
A member or several members of the team may respond to the school on the day of or the following day. The crisis team will conduct small groups or meet with individual students and families if needed. Typically, the team comes into school from 1-4 days with follow-up as the school community begins to recover from the event.
