                   LETTING US HELP!

 by Pat Holecek, Founder & CEO

 
Today, whether you are an educator or police officer,  you face problems that require new approaches and innovative solutions within budgets whose management demands ultimate skill.

One reality is that you can't stop training, especially when bullying gets worse,  gang activity increases,  suicide numbers grow and NCLB and common decency requires more service to students with disabilities.

If you are a police officer  working in schools,  little of your training prepared you for the balancing act of being an SRO, Juvenile Detective or First Responder to a school community while maintaining your sworn duties to uphold the law.

If you are an educator,  you are expected to provide a safe and orderly school climate,  make special provisions for bullying and harassment,  make Adequate Yearly Progress,  and follow NCLB among dozens of other requirements.  But don't mention budget as a reason for failure because your Board doesn't want to hear it!     

Throughout this web site you will see mention of services available to you.  Now we offer you an amazing  new program: 

 RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION:  BEHAVIOR

full details

Law Advisory teaches CAN-DO LAW™   We encourage you to read law to ask what you CAN DO instead of hobbling yourself with restrictions.  And we teach you how to avoid law suits. 

Call me. I'm a former school nurse.  I'm a police officer's widow.  I'm the mother of seven successful kids.   Let's discuss what my organization can do for you.  I'm at (800) 543-0212 and,  if I'm not,  leave a message and I'll be back to you in no time.

 NEW SCHOOL PROGRAM

RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION: BEHAVIORS

Law Advisory takes a

TIERED TEAM APPROACH to

(1) allow teachers to recognize,  intervene only when advisable and report simply but effectively

(2) establish a nearly error-proof review involving less than six people

(3) involve experts and parents as necessary

(4) document to reduce potential liability but, importantly, define future "red flags"

This program is based on U.S. Dept. of Ed. guidelines and findings of the Federal School Violence Initiative. 

One simple program effective against bullying, sex harassment,  targeted violence, gang activity and child abuse.

SPECIAL EDUCATION AND 504:  POLICE OFFICER'S ROLE

The nation decided that children driven by disabilities need different treatment.  Now the law carves out a special place for the SRO and First Reponders. 

We explain Special Ed,  504 and No Child Left Behind in plain English.  Then we turn to "transition",  the need to have these students ready to live in the real world.   Finally we cover a little-known part of Federal Law that gives prosecutors and judges great power.
