START Self Management - Elementary Focus
Date: Jan 23
Time: 8:15 AM to 11:30 AM
Calendar: MAISD Professional Learning Opportunities
Self-management systems are an incredibly effective intervention to support students who exhibit challenging behaviors that may be aggressive, repetitive, or disruptive in nature. Additionally, self-management systems teach students to take responsibility for their own behavior. This allows for increased independence and improved self-awareness. Participants will learn how to identify the problem behavior and select a replacement behavior. Attendees will also learn to create self- management systems that focus on high-interest areas, and how to implement them in conjunction with reinforcement strategies to lower the frequency of challenging behavior.

Our Vision

MAISD will be an educational partner in building strong communities.

Our Mission

In partnership with its communities, MAISD provides innovative and effective learning opportunities for students, schools, and families. 

Annual Education Reports

The Annual Education Report (AER) provides key information about the educational progress on the complex reporting of information required by federal and state laws. The reports contain information about student assessment, accountability and teacher quality. We have three AERs available  to parents and the community. Below is a list of each school with a link to its AER letter and data.
